Banksy @ Bristol Museum


Graffiti artist Banksy has unveiled his most ambitious British project to date, a made over museum in his home town of Bristol.

Staged in the council-owned City Museum and Art Gallery, Banksy v Bristol Museum was such a closely guarded secret even senior councillors were unaware of the plans, while visitors and staff were told that filming had been taking place. The exhibition features animatronics, installations and a sensory display.

Jon Kay takes a look at some of the artworks on display and talks to Kate Brindley, Museum Director.
