Art Parody Street Artist Hanksy to Make Big Splash with First Solo Show
Posted by Benjamin Sutton on Fri, Dec 9, 2011 at 4:01 PM
It's been a good year for Hanksy, the Banksy-parodying, Tom Hanks-punning street artist whose work has been appearing around Soho and the Lower East Side (and Bushwick!). And like any self-respecting street artist, he's now generated enough buzz to land his first gallery exhibition.
Hanksy will have his solo debut in a one-night Hankstravaganza on January 13th at Lower East Side art space Krause Gallery—which has also been exhibiting works by internet-adored street artist Olek.
The exhibition at 149 Orchard Street will last from 7-10pm. Expect many more new Hanksy pieces in the next five weeks.
