Banksy Vandalized (Twice)

Banksy’s work – which once was referred to as vandalism, but is now revered – has become the target of another type of vandal (a disgruntled ex-employee, perhaps?). On Monday night, someone defaced one of Banksy’s more famous Bristol street pieces – depicting a naked man hanging from a window – by shooting it with a paintgun. Before fans of the artist could recover from the shock, another piece was bombarded with paint-filled balloons the following night. Work has already begun on the restoration of the pieces. Could we be seeing more of Banksy’s art vandalized? Stay tuned.

Banksy Framed Outdoors

Shortly after a new work by Banksy popped up on the side of a building in Bristol, the residents decided to protect it from vandals. Seeing as Banksy is also from Bristol, they wanted to show pride for their fellow townsman by framing the piece in an effort to keep it from being painted over or from being vandalized. One thing it doesn’t protect from though is having the wall itself removed along with the work as we already have seen in the past.
