We are now approaching the end of our fourth chapter. I would like you to write an article about Banksy for your school's website. Your article should obviously start with a title.

Bansky or the mysterious artist

Banksy is the pseudonym of an anonymous British artist. He is known for his art, his street art using graffiti and as a film director and a political activist too. He uses for his piece of art an ironic or cynical staging and controversial theme in order to make react people and society about some situations he don’t accept.

Bansky is an anonymous artist. Nobody know his face because he always wearing a mask and some people make hypothesis about his real identity but nothing is sure. He gives very few interviews and he never appears in an action room even if this action room is selling his pieces of art.

Bansky is a committed artist.  Most of Banksy's works are humorous images with a subliminal message about freedom, anti-capitalism or anti-system.
