I learned about Banksy during our trip to London last year, and quickly became obsessed. So, of course when I learned of an exhibit coming to New York, I had to go.
While Banksy's work is usually fantastic stenciled graffiti, this was a bit different...
The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill
Because "New Yorkers don't care about art, they care about their pets" he opened a "pet store".
I think it has something to do with the "what's the difference between animals we eat and animals as pets", but I may be putting too much into this. It may be Banksy being an asshole. I don't care, I love him.
