Signed, dated and numbered - Screenprint on paper // Christ With Shopping Bags by Banksy, a limited edition screen print from 2004, offers a powerful critique of consumerism through a provocative image. The artwork depicts Jesus on the cross, yet instead of the traditional imagery of suffering, he is shown carrying shopping bags filled with brightly wrapped presents. The contrasting pink ribbons and gift packages emphasize the commercialization of sacred symbols, questioning the values of modern society and the relentless pursuit of material goods, especially during the holiday season. The drips of black paint suggest decay or corruption, amplifying the satire. This signed and numbered screen print is a stark commentary on the intersection of capitalism and spirituality.

What is Lettrism?
Lettrism is an art form that uses letters, words, and symbols to create artwork. The movement was established in Paris in the 1940s and later gained popularity in the 1950s in America. Lettrisme is the French spelling of the movement's name, derived from the French word for letter.
