banksy marseille lighthouse

Banksy has unveiled a new street artwork in Marseille, France, located on Rue Félix Fregier. The piece features a painted lighthouse and the stenciled text “I want to be what you saw in me,” set beside a sidewalk bollard whose shadow the lighthouse mimics. The artist posted the work on Instagram, where it quickly garnered over 800,000 likes. The mural marks a notably introspective and emotionally vulnerable departure from Banksy’s typically satirical or politically charged style.

Title, Theme Announced for 2026 Gwangju Biennale

The Gwangju Biennale has announced the title and theme for its 2026 edition, which will run from September 5 to November 15. The title, 'You Must Change Your Life,' is taken from a Rainer Maria Rilke poem. Artistic director Ho Tzu Nyen stated the event will focus on 'change' and 'practice,' exploring art's transformative power through a curated selection of works from 45 artists and collectives, the smallest cohort in the event's history.

Is Banksy getting personal? New lighthouse mural prompts speculation over its philosophical meaning

Banksy has unveiled a new mural on Instagram after a six-month hiatus, depicting a black lighthouse with the stenciled phrase “I want to be what you saw in me.” The work, located in Marseille’s Rue Félix Fregier, marks the first time the artist has referred to himself in the first person in a public mural. Speculation about its meaning ranges from a tribute to a deceased artist known as Lonely Farmer to a moment of rare self-reflection, though Banksy’s studio Pest Control declined to comment.
