BOMB LOVE , 2004 Screenprint on paper Signed, dated, and numbered lower right "Banksy '04 66/150" 19 1/2 by 27 5/8 inches AUTHENTICATION Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Pest Control PROVENANCE Private Los Angeles Collection Banksy's two-color screenprint Bomb Love (commonly referred to as Bomb Hugger) is emblematic of his witty aesthetic which uses creative juxtapositions to make humorous commentaries on society at large. The stencil depicting a young girl in a black dress tenderly clutching a bomb as if it were a teddy bear was originally placed on an East London wall. A not so subtle nod to the irony and devastation of war, Banksy has repeatedly executed this stencil throughout London. Request a Condition Report Sign Me Up To Phone Bid! Categories: Banksy
