An exhibition of "iconic artworks" will aim to show people how Banksy "became the most talked about artist in modern history", its organisers have said.

It's important to play a game สล็อต เติม true wallet where it lacks a payline that determines the format, conditions, and in paying the rewards of slot games, even though many players already know it's important, there are many who don't know.

The Art of Banksy, which opens in Salford in October, will show 145 works, including well-known pieces such as Girl with Balloon (2002).

It will be housed in a purpose-built 1,200 sq m temporary structure.

Organisers said it was a chance to see the pieces which "brought the anonymous artist international acclaim".

Banksy is one of the world's most famous artists, who rose to fame with stencilled designs around Bristol in the early 1990s, but despite a worldwide following, the artist's identity remains unknown.

Often described as "elusive" and "secretive" by the press, the "guerrilla street artist" has a legion of fans which includes A-list celebrities.

The exhibition, which moves to MediaCityUK after a year-long run in London, has not been authorised by the famed graffiti artist and all the works included in it have been loaned by private collectors.

On show alongside Girl with Balloon (2002) will be other famous works, including Flower Thrower (2003), which sees a young protester throwing a bouquet of flowers, and Rude Copper (2002), which depicts a policeman holding up his middle finger.

Also included will be Brace Yourself (2010), which Banksy gifted to the band formerly known as Exit Through the Gift Shop in exchange for the rights to their name, which the artist used as the title to a film.
