Banksy is the artist behind the most famous, subversive and satirical street art on the planet. Yet despite their notoriety over the last two decades, Banksy has impressively managed to maintain their anonymity.

But that could all change, due to a current court case between two art collectors and Banksy's authentication company, which could see the artist forced to reveal their identity.

In this episode of The Briefing, Bension Siebert speaks with LiSTNR Investigations Editor, Clair Weaver about the current theories on who the artist could be, and the potential ramifications of Banksy losing their anonymity. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
