• After decades of speculation, the elusive street artist known only by his pseudonym Banksy has revealed his name.
• When asked if he goes by “Robert Banks” in a lost — and recently rediscovered — BBC interview from 20 years ago, the graffitist admitted: “It’s Robbie.”
• The artist has remained largely anonymous over the years, despite his distinctive street art and high-profile hijinks, such as shredding his infamous “Girl with Balloon” immediately after it was auctioned for $1.4 million.
