Ok thought this will deserve it's own thread:

This piece just appeared one day, you should have seen everybody stoping to have a look on their lunch hours, the traffic was stopping and everything Very Happy

It's quite hard to describe where this piece is, it's on the side of a building about 20 metres from the ground and about 20 metres from the bridge where I have taken these photos from, don't know if this comes accross in the pics

God knows how he managed it but very glad that he did.

What do you think?

He's well prepared, that's how he did it.
Quality though.

Good to see he's still doing stuff - what with all this LA show recently I was wondering if he would be too good for graf...

I mean one of his crude oils was being sold recently for ?30K.

Makes you think that if he did get caught by the Police could he get done for causing Criminal Damage - given that damage is assessed in value and anything he paints on would actually increase in value...

I don't think the police can be that arsed as his identity is known, they could easily arrest him if they wanted to.

He must have abseiled for that one I reckon. Looks cool though.

Latest Banksy update from Bristol

One of his pieces just sold for ?180k in Bristol.........



It was attached to a 3 bed house in Easton but it was advertised as a Banksy with a free house, I saw it on RightMove.com but when I went to get the link for you guys to see it the house had already been sold.

Also just seen on the local news that the Bristol City Council have just painted over one of his older pieces by mistake, it was on a private property so they might be in a spot of bother.

The owner is not happy and might sue the Council Very Happy Very Happy

It's been replaced by a large slab of black paint with "Wot no Banksy" painted over the top of it
