EVE AWAITS CONFIRMATION OF BANKSY

Although the prolific British graffiti artist has been keeping a low profile in the UK recently, it is alleged that Banksy didn’t break with tradition and made his usual pilgrimage to Glastonbury festival – leaving his legendary mark on the iconic Super Fortress high security perimeter fence.

Yet to be authenticated by the Chesterfield based firm Eve, the latest artwork shows all the signs of being the creation of the elusive street artist, with echoes of previous work running throughout, such as the CND symbol and strong stencilling. 

With one of its 3 metre fence sections used as the canvas, Eve is currently taking steps to authenticate the artwork before deciding where the section can be housed for fellow Banksy fans’ enjoyment.

Rick Barnett, managing director of Eve says: “Both Banksy and his artwork are surrounded by intrigue and speculation, so we’re extremely pleased this piece of modern art was found and that we can now protect it to share with all.”

“The 8 kilometre fence not only serves a vital security purpose during the event, but over the years it has grown to become an iconic symbol of the festival – a status which has been further increased with this potential Banksy mark.”

Eve will release further information following the authentication of the artwork.
