AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The June 15, 2023 special issue of the newspaper "The Herald" is a collectible edition dedicated to Banksy's Glasgow exhibition "Cut & Run", featuring an exclusive cover. This issue, which serves as the official announcement for the artist's first authorized show in 14 years, includes exclusive interview content, generating high global interest among collectors.
The Glasgow Herald managed to interview the reclusive and semi-anonymous artist just as he prepares to inaugurate a new show dedicated to him at the Glasgow Gallery of Modern Art.
The exhibition will reveal, for the first time, the stencils used to create many of the artist's most iconic works.
The scoop prompted the Herald to dedicate the front page on Thursday to a Banksy work depicting a rat with a box cutter.
Director Catherine Salmond said:
"This has been a truly special edition of The Herald, which required a great team effort, not to mention the secrecy.
We have received a huge amount of interest from around the world, with people rushing to order copies as souvenirs of this exciting Glasgow event."
Speaking with The Herald, Banksy said:
"I've kept these stencils hidden for years, aware that they could be used as evidence in a vandalism charge. But that moment seems to have passed, so I am now displaying them in a gallery as works of art. I don't know what the greater crime is."
The Stamps:
Banksy Commemoration of the Russia-Ukraine War
These stamps were issued by Ukrposhta, the national Ukrainian postal service, to commemorate the anniversary of Russia's invasion on February 24, 2022.
The stamp featuring Banksy’s artwork, issued on February 24, 2023 for the first anniversary of the Russian invasion, is a powerful symbol of resistance and hope.
Here is the meaning in Italian of "ПТН ПНХ!" (Ptn Pnh!):
It is the abbreviation of the Ukrainian phrase "Putin pohel na khuy", which literally and very vulgarly translates to "Putin, go to the c*nt" or "Putin, f*ck off".
It is a slogan used in Ukraine to insult and challenge the Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The stamp reproduces a mural by the British street artist Banksy, created in Borodianka (near Kyiv), one of the towns hardest hit by the war.
The image shows a small boy in judo throwing an adult man.
Meaning of the image (David vs. Goliath): the child represents Ukraine, a smaller and younger country, the adult represents Russia, perceived as a larger and more aggressive power.
Judo is a direct reference to the sport beloved by Vladimir Putin.
The artwork symbolises the hoped-for victory of technique, moral strength, and justice (the child) over brute force and arrogance (the adult).
In summary, the stamp celebrates Ukraine's ability to resist and counterattack, despite the disproportion of forces on the ground.
