in case you weren't aware

the bristol museum of art opened a banksy exhibit on June 13th. i wish i could afford to go all the way to england to see it, but since i can't this sample will have to suffice. fortunately, i was lucky enough to see some of the pieces on display as part of the "Village Pet Store And Charcoal Grill" instalation on seventh avenue right here in NYC. the show runs through august 31st.

the bristol exhibit is significant because bansky is assumed to be from yate, south gloucestershire, an area outside of bristol, though few specifics can be confirmed about banksy's origin or personal life.
