It seems some cleaners have cleaned up one of Banksy's famous works.

I have two books by banksy, as I had to study his work for a presentation in critical studies at university (unfortunately, I didnt complete this as I told Bolton Uni where to shove their course.)
My favourite banksy piece has to be:



It's an amazing piece of art, I love the fact that the only colour in it is the red. To me it gives off a feeling that he is trying to represent the little girl being lost and/or lonely and that shes fading into the background whereas her heart still beats strong and thats why the balloon is red heart shaped, or maybe the girl is grown into a woman and shes just given her heart away and the child inside is fading into the background. It's probably nothing to do with that what he is trying to communicate but thats what I am getting from it. (also it is 6am and I haven't been to sleep yet)

For humour this is my favourite. I love the way he photographed the wall as it built up with graffiti, and the whole thing about the graffitti being done as obedience rather than disobedience (I can't remember the exact quote from Wall and Piece). Very clever.

banksy is amazing!! All of his work is really good and it is definitly worth buying his book, but my favourite piece of his, is probably the monkey one...



PS does anyone else think that his logo that he sprays is good?? I like it a lot
