Wanksy is the unheralded genius behind some of the most iconic urban images of our time: the seminal 'cock and balls', the timeless 'Leroy loves Sarah', the devastating brevity of 'sod' and countless other masterpieces. For the first time, this book collects Wanksy's most significant works to date together with expert critiques that analyse and illuminate their hidden depths. You'll never look at a crudely drawn penis in the same way again. AUTHOR: Marc Blakewill and James Harris have been a writing partnership for 12 years. Based in London, they have written for a wide range of TV and radio comedy shows such as Horrible Histories, Russell Howard's Good News, and Hudd and Quantick's Global Village. SELLING POINTS: A spoof on Banksy, the internationally known and universally-acclaimed graffiti artist with a highly successful book (Wall and Piece) and merchandise range. Combining juvenile images with high-brow art criticism, will appeal to a wide-ranging audience Colour photographs
