New Banksy Artworks Keep Popping Up All Over New York City, And Here’s What People Found So Far
Known for his satirical style and political remarks, Banksy never misses an opportunity to make a statement. Murals of this famous artist have been popping up all around New York City for a while now, and 2018 is no exception.
His latest thought-provoking piece rests on an abandoned gas station, located in Midwood, Brooklyn. It portrays a man who appears to be a real estate developer, stock-lashing and driving away a group of people. Capitalism aside, the street artist continues to raise social awareness on political issues as well. Another popular mural artwork he produced in 2018 addresses the imprisonment of Zehra Doğan. She was sentenced by a court in Turkey to two years and nine months in prison for painting an image of the destroyed Kurdish-majority city of Nusaybin, obliterated by the Turkish government forces.
Scroll down to check out the latest street art from Banksy and let us know in the comments if you think his cool artworks are still on point!

i like the zehra dogan work. i often find his work overly simplified in message. but i do like when he brings awareness to issues that locals would otherwise not be aware of.

I don't think banksy is vandalizing with his art, I read some where that it brings so much attention it's usually a positive influence brought from the piece of art. Though this is a double standard of course, any other person would be sought after and punished. I personally would love to see who is actually banksy, I love the allure of his mysterious existence.

How can you be sure they’re Banksy? The idea is, he sneaks along in the dark, does his thing and vanishes. How on earth could be do the rat unnoticed?
