Banksy comes to Lectoure…

Banksy comes to Lectoure, an exhibition unlike anything the Gers has ever seen

50 works. 30 artists. 5 days to change the way you see the world.

The Domaine hosts an exceptional celebration dedicated to the universe of Banksy: original works, tributes and brand-new creations spread across the entire estate — gardens, buildings, hidden corners.

30 international artists from the UK, the Netherlands and beyond, united in a collective ode to Banksy’s subversive urban art. The works take over the 40-hectare grounds of Domaine du Boulouch, transforming it into an open-air artistic trail…

50 works: originals, tributes, interpretations…

Exclusive new pieces and rare originals across a range of forms — paintings, sculptures, graffiti, photography, drawings… A rare opportunity to see them up close.

An exhibition in the heart of nature… Around the lake and open grounds

The works take on a whole new dimension in the natural setting of the estate.

Local food trucks, music, animation, …

Every day of the exhibition comes alive with entertainment, live music, local street food and a few surprises along the way!

Exhibited works available to purchase, Banksy catalogues

Every piece on show can be acquired on the spot. High-quality catalogues on Banksy’s work will be available to buy.

Banksy the icon

Banksy, a defining figure of street art

Street artist. Political provocateur. Cultural icon. And still, nobody knows his face.

Banksy is a Bristol-born street artist whose identity remains one of the art world’s greatest mysteries. Since the 1990s, his stencilled works have appeared overnight on walls, bridges and streets across the globe – from London’s East End to the West Bank barrier in Palestine.

Book your stay
What makes Banksy unique isn’t just the anonymity. It’s the precision of the message: each work is a sharp, often darkly comic commentary on war, capitalism, surveillance, and the absurdity of modern life…

A rat holding a paintbrush. A girl releasing a heart-shaped balloon. A soldier spray-painting a peace sign. Simple images. Uncomfortable truths.


His works have sold at auction for millions, been stolen from walls, and debated in parliaments – yet he continues to operate outside every institution that tries to claim him.

“Ode to Banksy” brings together 30 international artists from the UK, the Netherlands and beyond to celebrate this singular voice through 80 original works and tributes – set across the exceptional grounds of Domaine [nom], in the heart of Gascony, South-West France.

Key facts about Banksy:

  • 🎨 Active since the early 1990s, originally from Bristol, UK
  • 🌍 Works documented in over 30 countries
  • 💰 Girl with Balloon self-destructed moments after selling for £1M at Sotheby’s (2018)
  • 🏛 Founded Dismaland (2015), a dystopian pop-up theme park visited by 150,000 people
  • 📋 Authenticated exclusively by Pest Control, his official certificate body
  • ❓ Identity: officially unknown to this day

Banksy’s singular universe meets the natural and historic setting of the estate

The “Ode to Banksy” exhibition is a chance to discover our Gascon estate from a whole new angle: where ancient stone meets spray paint, where nature enters into dialogue with the tag.
An invitation to see Domaine du Boulouch differently – and never forget it.

The artists and works

For this exhibition, the curator has brought together 30 artists with varied backgrounds, from France and across Europe, each invited to freely engage with Banksy’s work – his stencil technique, his subjects, his humour, his provocation – and create an entirely original piece.


Among them: painters, sculptors and visual artists such as Anne Bothuon, Béatrice Darmagnac, Christophe Faso, Christophe Salles and Jacques Sierpinski, alongside international contributors including Simon Redington (UK) and Tineke Smith (NL).


A total of 50 works spread across the sweeping grounds of Domaine du Boulouch – a unique open-air artistic trail, where every turn holds a new surprise.
