Banksy Captured: Volume 1 (Second Edition) is an extraordinary visual archive that offers unrivalled access to one man’s mission to paint truth to power and take over the streets of the UK. Authored and authorised by Steve Lazarides, Banksy’s long‑time collaborator, fixer and accidental myth‑builder, this updated edition presents a raw, unfiltered look at the rise of one of the most influential cultural figures of our time. Across 220 pages of phenomenal photography and vivid first‑hand accounts, the book documents both the iconic public works and the unseen behind‑the‑scenes moments that shaped the early years of Banksy’s career. Printed in mint quality, it captures the energy, anarchy and creative urgency of a movement as it exploded, offering readers a rare glimpse into a world that was never meant to be recorded. This second edition features expanded artist selections, revised commentary and enhanced printing, presented in a 21.5 × 26 cm paperback format that balances collectability with accessibility. More than a photobook, Volume 1 stands as a cultural time capsule, a piece of living history, and an essential addition for street‑art enthusiasts, photography lovers and collectors seeking a definitive record of Banksy’s formative years.
