THE ARTWORK

-

Banksy - Love Rat - Unsigned

The screenprint on paper by Banksy, Love Rat depicts a mouse holding a paintbrush still stained with the red paint used to the heart behind.

This is one of Banksy’s most iconic subjects and among his first works featuring the rat, an animal that we can find in several of his works. Here, the mouse becomes an emblem of street art itself, as well as a message of love and positivity.

The work was made in 2004 in a limited edition of 600 numbered and unsigned pieces. It measures 50x35 cm and is provided with the certificate of authenticity Pest Control that guarantees its originality.

Banksy: Rat - Art

The rat is an iconic animal in Banksy's artistic production. He chooses it as a symbol of street art itself: it moves at night, without being seen, it populates the streets and cities all over the world and, although opposed by the population, it resists and does not give up.

In addition, the rat brings with it a pun that is typical of the irony of Banksy. Rat - Art are in fact composed of the same letters, as if to suggest an identification between the two words.

The rat is also a reference to one of the greatest masters of street art and a point of reference for Banksy: Blek Le Rat. French street artist, he is considered the father of the stencil technique and has inspired several generations of street artists.
