Just recently, auction house Bonhams played host to rare auction selling works of street art and graffiti. With a list of artists including Banksy, Faile, Blek Le Rat, Keith Haring, Adam Neate, Space Invader, Anthony Micallef and the Japanese trio of Aya Takano, Chino Aoshima and Takashi Murakami, the range of talent for sale did not disappoint. However it was with obvious prediction that current pop art superstar Banksy would steal the show and he did not disappoint with some of his art works fetching close to a half a million US dollars for a stencil none the less. For the whole list of Banksy sale prices check out Supertouch.
