The Walken Dead
Street artist and punmeister Hanksy (featured previously on Neatorama) hit Los Angeles and had a run-in with the LAPD. Benjamin of Krause Gallery told us:
The handcuffs came out and the blue/red were lit up while Hanksy was putting up the Weird Gal Yankovic piece. The artist said the police were laughing and taking photos of the art piece while he was in handcuffs.
Hanksy was in town to promote his upcoming solo exhibition at Gallery1988. The show opens on May 24th.
