Critical Review
Napalm is one of Banksy’s most powerful screen prints in colour, released in 2004 as an unsigned edition of 600.
Napalm is undoubtedly one of Banksy’s most powerful, hard-hitting works, cementing his position as one of the pioneering political contemporary artists. Napalm is a three colour screen print and was released as an unsigned edition of 600. The work reference depicts the photograph taken during the Vietnam War, showing a nine year-old-girl (Kim Phuc) running from the horror of a Napalm blast. The moment was captured by photographer Nick Ut. Banksy took the photograph as his context for creating a disarming juxtaposition – we have two supposedly friendly American icons of consumerism (Ronald McDonald and Mickey Mouse), smiling as they lead the terrorised girl away from a disaster. This artwork is a quintessential and especially strong formulation of Banksy’s critique of the military-industrialist complex, linking violent conflict and capitalism. This is also demonstrated in other works like Bomb Hugger and Happy Choppers.
