… And there goes another one!
“Within hours of it going up in Long Island City, another Banksy piece has been vandalized by OMAR, once again leaving various street art forums sitting shiva and inflicting another casualty in NYC’s graffiti wars”Via Animal
The One That Got Away…
“Destroying Banksy’s work before some douche bag gallery owner knocks it down to put into the art market is a Fucking Blessing. Does this make OMAR cool? No, but that’s not the point. The “artist” that did this is not significant to me, it’s the immediate commodity that was destroyed. If you miss the original Banksy piece, just look at a JPEG.”Could not have said better myself. Just one commentator’s opinon on OMAR’s desecration of NYC’s latest Banksy, which won’t be finding it’s way into any gallery anytime in the near future…
