Bansky Gets Covered
I suppose with the success of Banksy in the gallery and eBay worlds it was just a matter of time before any of his street work started to be hoarded for misuse and sale of those who would have prosecuted anyone else for an act of vandalism. Following the $400k sale of a Banksy wall a few weeks ago, it comes as no shock that another wall was recently spotted having a protective plastic covering installed shortly after the Bankster laced the spot up. The only sad thing is this time the wall is on a Tesco store. If you’re not familiar with Tesco, they are the UK equivalent of Wal-Mart stomping out the Mom and Pop’s over the pond. It’s a sad day when a street vandal is making a political statement by painting a anti-consumerism piece on a mega-chain store and they will just make more money out of it. It’s ok Banks…we know what you were saying.
