Banksy's Exhibtion

BANKSY EXHIBITION: BRISTOL

Banksy's exhibition was very different to what one would usually expect to see inside a museum; that is however what most people would expect from him.

What surprised me about the exhibition wasn't the digs at today's society that most of us have thought before. Or the unusual graffiti. What I found most striking was the skill he obviously holds, and the way he used it to address his issues. Playing a game with the public, he placed beautiful landscapes and 'classic paintings' with a spin among the usual exhibition. I couldn't figure out how much of these he had contributed to, or if he had a team of artists working towards the output for this exhibition.

The exhibition was fantastic to look around, enthusing even the most unartistic.
