Banksy exhibition to hit Amsterdam

Banksy exhibition to hit Amsterdam

An upcoming exhibition in Amsterdam will present more than 10 original pieces by the celebrated Banksy, who turned the streets of London upside down with a style of vandalism so clever it could only be considered art.

Amesterdam's LionelGallery is organizing the event, called "Keep it Real," from June 20 through July 20, that's expected to draw collectors from all over the world.

The display will be centered around the painting "Forgive Us Our Trespassing," which measures 122 by 244 centimeters and was featured in Banksy's DVD "Exit Through the Gift Shop."

Following an exhibition of the artist's work at Sotheby's London 6 months ago, Banksy's fame has soared in the art world.
