In episode two of Barnebys’ podcast “Eye of the Beholder”, we traveled back in time, to when Banksy shocked the art world in the middle of an ongoing auction with what is probably the world’s most talked about art coup of all time. Now, we are back behind the scenes at New Bond Street, where the same painting is going under the hammer for a multimillion sum. We also talk to Danny Herbert, collector of street art and Head of Department Urban and Contemporary Art at Tate Ward, about the rising interest in street art.
