Following hot off the heels of Angelina Jolie reportedly spending £200,00 on a Bansky work, street art has become the latest thing to adorn the coolest pads. Galleries are popping up all over the place selling prints and unique pieces. From signs, to statuary to political statements, hang in irregular groups for your very own gallery.
It seems to be a trend set to stay for 2009. Tate Modern recently presented the work of six internationally acclaimed artists whose work is intricately linked to the urban environment.
Auction houses have seen a massive uplift in attendance and sales of street art.
If you can’t afford the likes of Banksy pick up a bargain on eBay, or why not purchase a couple of coffee table style street art books to display in your living room.
The brilliant thing about street art is it is basically anything developed in public places, so let your imagination go to town and find something a little bit different.
