Detonating Monkey | Painting of a man enjoying a painting by Banksy Now open for bidding. To view the auction, please use the link in the first comment below. Measuring 30 x 30 cm, this work depicts a man entirely immersed in Monkey Detonator (often referred to as Detonating Monkey), a creation by the anonymous street artist-provocateur Banksy. Known for his sharp socio-political undercurrents and irreverent wit, Banksy’s iconic artwork depicts a cheerful chimpanzee mid-leap, hands grasped around a TNT plunger moments away from triggering an explosion. The viewer doesn't back down, but stands fixed before the canvas, presenting a striking contrast between the ticking tension of the explosive image and the serene, frozen stillness of human contemplation. All the best, Gerard Detonating Monkey Painting of a man enjoying a painting by Banksy G.
