October 2013 – Banksy NYC

UK underground artist Banksy came to NYC recently and made the entire 5 boroughs his playground like canvas for the entire month of October. Highlights included a tribute to the victims of 911, a secret art sale to unsuspecting buyers in Central Park and a 24 art exhibit under the high-line which included a gas station turned into a sheep pasture. Sadly many of his pieces were painted over within hours or removed, but we stopped by a few of the impromptu works throughout month. The buzz and hype of having Banksy around for the month was great and he’s welcome in Gotham anytime as far as most of us in the city are concerned.
