Banksy came into the world of street art much later than many of the artist we have covered. However, he has had an undeniable influence on other artists and the genre of street art in general. Many street artists who have begun their careers in the past few years owe their success to Banksy. The street art community in general is in debt to Banksy solely for the awareness of this art he has brought to the masses. Banksy has the power of causing a social media frenzy and has even been nominated for an Oscar; no other street artist has had that power in a very long time. His popularity and influence is what has made Banksy into the artist he is today.
