While Banksy’s takeover of the Bristol Museum has been in the news, because many of us haven’t been able to peep what is described as his “biggest ever”, we had to make mention. We have been fans for some time, but were pushed into frenzy after his LA show a few years back which resulted in hysteria. What’s most amazing is that Banksy is a UK artist, so when he pulls off a stunt at Disneyland or in a downtown LA warehouse, you can imagine him blending in with the crowd, smirking to himself under the radar. But in his hometown, taking over the neighborhood landmark museum is gangster. As one of the girls says in the video promo (below), “he’s like Batman, but better.” The promo is a great behind the scenes look at the exhibit, and Juxtapoz posted an editorial on the new exhibit but you can find plenty more out on the internets. Filled with his trademark remakes of classic pieces, he adds a new twist — a statement about animal cruelty(?) — as he gave glimpse of in a New York storefront last year. If you find yourself in UK, it’s definitely worth the side trip. And you never know where he’s gonna strike next, you might wanna watch out for him in your ‘hood.
