Jump to: navigation, search

The bust is also a homage to British street artist Banksy, who has achieved international recognition with his politically-charged graffiti and who holds a similarly pivotal place in Selim Varol's collection. Banksy's 2003 work, Turf War, is a black and white stencil of Churchill with a green mohawk. His work was influenced by an anonymous vandal who defaced Churchill's statue at Parliament Square during the May Day riots back in year 2000.

First released on Dec 1st, 2014, the bust stands 16"/40cm high and is rotocast vinyl.
