Are you a fan of graffiti, street/stencil art and Banksy? If yes, today is your lucky day – I will be giving away one copy of “Wall And Piece”, illustrated, commented album with Banksy’s greatest works – old and new. Here’s what Amazon has to say about the book:
Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas.If you look hard enough you’ll find your own. His statements, incitements, ironies and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals.
Sounds like fun? Now you can get your own copy of the book absolutely free from MariuszCiesla.com! More details after the jump.
Rules of engagement
As said before, you can win one copy of Banksy’s “Wall And Piece” by entering the competition on the blog. I have exactly one copy of the book, since it’s a self-funded giveaway, so only one lucky person will get it. The book is a hardcover edition (paperbacks suck) that you will be getting straight from Amazon, the only difference is – I will pay for it, including shipping.
To take a part in the competition, you need to follow the rules as given below:
- You need to add me to your followed list on Twitter
- You need to retweet the link to this post using either one of the methods in the post (Tweetmeme button on top, Tweet button below) or your own Twittering method, mentioning my Twitter ID (@dotmariusz) – it will let me track who has retweeted to put your name on the list of participants)
- You need to drop me a comment below, telling me why do you want the book so badly, with your Twitter ID attached (so I know if you met the requirements listed here)
- Each participant is allowed to take part only once.
- If you’ll be the lucky girl or guy to win, I will contact you on Twitter with few questions, including your address to ship the book to and via which Amazon you’d feel most comfortable to ship through (Europe, USA etc.)
- The deadline might be extended if there’s not enough participants to provide a fair competition.
That’s basically it. Seems easy? Then, go ahead and tweet, comment and so on. The deadline for the competition is 1st of September, when I will announce the lucky winner on my Twitter profile.
UPDATE: Due to small amount of participants before 1st of September (the deadline), the giveaway will be extended until 1st October. Get your Banksy on!
The giveaway is self-funded, opposed to being sponsored, so the quantity of prizes are usually limited. If any company reading this would like to offer up some similar prizes for advertising and marketing purposes, then please get in contact.

I have a talented Canadian graffiti artist I’m trying to educate about the works of Banksy. He’s not had it easy the last few years and deserves a few perks.

@nymphont
This is just stuff I love going through.
Sorry for the delay between tweet and comment, but I was sure I posted both in the same time.
@dominikporada
I simply love the art to Banksy! I am from europe but currently living in the US and I’m surprised that he is not known around here, even among artists. I will be able to “educate” many friends with this book. Moreover his work is a great inspiration for contemporary artists, street artists, graphic designers, web designers etc and I really need some inspiration.
ooops…. nearly forgot (read above)
@worldtravelergr
I’ve been a big fan of Banksy ever since I seen some prints of his work at an event. I have some prints of his work around my house too!
I’ve been meaning to buy this book for ages now but I’m seriously broke!

Hi, I’d like that book because…well because I live in Italy, the country where Banksy walls are going to be erased!!!
@fatlox
I want this book because I love Banksy’s art. I think is great.
@chapulincubano
I’ve just started (over the last couple of years) getting into Banksy’s work, and I’d love to check out more of what I’ve been missing. His stuff is beyond inspirational, so it would be awesome to add this to my shelf of ideas & inspiration! I didn’t even know about the book, so either way I’ll be grabbing a copy! Thanks for the opportunity!
