サザビーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (サザビーズInstagram)「Towering at seven meters in height, Banksy’s Forgive Us Our Trespassing from 2011 is the largest known piece by the anonymous street artist. While the iconic image of the kneeling boy first appeared in 2010, the present 7-meter work was created in 2011 with the participation of over 100 6th to 9th grade students at the City of Angels School. With students assisting in tagging the stained glass windows, the present work goes to the very heart and spirit of street art and graffiti, while the imagery itself is a potent revelation of Banksy’s conflicted feelings about being a graffiti artist. The setting of a sacred church functions on the one hand to heighten the ambiguous sentiments of contrition and repentance; on the other hand, the sacrilegious blasphemy of defacing the hallowed windows of a church paints an incredibly powerful statement that epitomizes Banksy’s cheeky, anarchic irreverence and rebellious spirit. Striking and monumental, Forgive Us Our Trespassing is a formidable piece by the internationally acclaimed artist whose subversive practice has granted him a reputation of infamy as much as world renown.⠀ ⠀ BANKSY⠀ Forgive Us Our Trespassing⠀ acrylic, spray paint and marker pens on wooden panel, in four parts⠀ overall: 655 by 421 cm. 257 7/8 by 165 3/4 in.⠀ Executed in 2011.⠀ Est.
