Notes NOTE - ‘Love Is In The Air’ is one of Banksy’s most iconic and most sought-after works of art, and it has been reproduced on posters, phone covers, T-shirts and other merchandise all over the world. The image also featured on the cover of Banksy’s famous autobiography Wall and Piece in 2005. Since its creation, the artist has created several versions of the stencil on canvas, and it was released as a print on the red background with an edition of 150 signed prints and 500 unsigned prints. This famous Art Piece is considered to be reminiscent of pictures from 1960’s campus and street riots around the globe. It has been interpreted as a representation of love and peace as an essential weapon for protestors if they want to achieve true change, instead of more violent means. A large scale rendering of the image was produced by Banksy in the conflict-ridden Gaza strip area of Jerusalem, as an indication by Banksy that there still might be hope for a peaceful solution in the ongoing struggle between Palestine and Israel.
