<NYに世界最大のバンクシーミュージアムOPEN>
The mysterious street artist Banksy
Banksy Museum exhibits the world's largest collection of 160 pieces
Opening on May 15, 2024 in the Soho area of Manhattan, New York!
Speaking of Banksy,
Although based in the UK,
A mysterious artist who appears out of nowhere one day, suddenly leaving behind his works all over the world.
Expressing serious realities such as war and peace, social and political messages through humor and satire.
The message and the location of the painting,
There are pros and cons,
The work is
They have disappeared in conflict zones, or they have been erased without permission because they were drawn without permission, or they have been quickly removed without a trace for the purpose of resale...
All the works that were erased or removed
Several selected talented artists have created life-size replicas
It is being exhibited in New York, with a street atmosphere intact.
I think most of Banksy's works are viewed on small screens such as smartphone photos,
It's amazing that you can see everything here in life-size.
If you come to NY, this is a must see!
< Banksy Museum NYC >
277 Canal Street, New York, 10013
