Guerrilla artist Banksy has opened his first official exhibition in New
York. The fake pet shop aims to question "our relationship with animals
and the ethics and sustainability of factory farming".

Thanks Bella!

Just stumbled across this thread. :th_yourock:

That's a good one, Cruiser.

Thanks Shine. Im very fond of his work

Are you an artist, Cruiser?

No Shine, although I did have a flair for drawing in my younger days. I was pretty good, if I could be so bold to say!

Cruiser, well said to Winston/Henry. They are the same character.

Ill tell you what gave it away for me Shine. I remember a thread which was started by Henry titled "the feelgood poster of 2008" or something like that. Henry 8th, the same Henry 8th that is constantly critisizing posters for threads on other posters. Then when Winstons name was mentioned, thats when the Multi I.D alarm bells started to ring, lol! Winston?? The feel good poster of 2008??

The writing on the wall.
Banksy's work appeared in a street in north London, on the side wall of a pharmacy !
Banksy is the well-known, pseudo-anonymous and elusive English graffiti artist ( whose identity is still uncertain ) and is famous for his artworks in a distinctive stencilling technique, which encompass topics such as politics, culture and ethics.
His works have sold for hundreds and thousands of pounds and have attracted many Hollywood celebrities !

I was lucky to see this one, and says so much about society today.

I dont think this one stayed up for very long

Brilliant Banksy
