    Banksy is a famous graffiti artist from Bristol, UK known for his iconic street art addressing topics like climate change, politics, and social issues. Some of his most famous artworks include fake British pound notes and graffiti installations questioning authority. He became embroiled in a public rivalry with another graffiti artist named King Robbo in the 1980s over painting spaces in London, with each periodically covering the other's work, culminating in a highly publicized incident in 2009.
