The New Commons Project is a public humanities initiative of the University of Maine at Farmington, Maine’s public liberal arts college, in partnership with the Maine Humanities Council.
Banksy, as described by the Morning Sentinel, is an anonymous and mysterious England-based street artist, political activist and international icon. His work will often feature striking humorous images, with anti-establishment messages, explains the Morning Sentinel. The New Commons will be holding multiple events through October exploring Banksy’s work, contemporary context, philosophy, and impact on today’s world.
