Banksy in New York

Posted by Miss Cellania in Arts & Crafts on October 10, 2008 at 10:38 am


Street artist Banksy has a show in a Manhattan storefront he named The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill, located at 89 Seventh Avenue South.

Banksy designed a pet shop that includes fish sticks swimming in a fish tank, a chimpanzee watching chimp porn, a fur coat playing a cat, and hot dog hamsters. One of our favorites has to be the Chicken McNuggets sipping barbeque sauce (image via wooster collective). With the use of animatronics Banksy is able to take his artform to a whole new level.

The show is open through October 31st. Link -Thanks, Jayne Howley!

    Hey cool. I should convince my friends to go to this while we’re out.

    There’s no charge right? I mean, that would be weird if there was seeing as it’s banksy.

    And we still don’t know his identity or did I miss something?

    Hmmm. McDonalds is currently running the Stunt McNugget commercials on Cartoon Network. This Banksy stuff looks very similar. Perhaps Mickey D’s is more artistically relevant than Banksy?

    This is brilliant, the mans a genius and I totally agree with his ideals, all not for profit too!
