Banksy draws the line

Banksy draws the line

Legendary guerrilla artist Banksy has done it again. Not content with graffiti masterpieces or planting an inflatable figure of a Guantanamo Bay prisoner at Disney World, Banksy has taken over the whole of the Council-owned City Museum and Art Gallery in his native Bristol. The exhibition invades every area of the museum, and each surprising exhibit expresses Banksy's iconoclastic humour and world view. The exhibition was mounted in extreme secrecy: not even City Council Officials knew it was happening, and gallery attendants were hired through the Job Centre just the day before. Banksy said: "This is the first show I've ever done where taxpayers' money is being used to hang my pictures up rather than scrape them off."
