quote [ While New Yorkers have been consumed by the stock market meltdown, a tiny little pet store quietly opened four days ago at 89 7th Avenue between West 4th and Bleeker Street in the West Village of New York City.
(...) Clearly, that this isn't your typical pet store. So who's the "owner" of the Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill at 89 West 7th Avenue? Banksy. ] i wish i was in NY just to pay a visit

I'm not a huge fan of modern art. Especially that which demands a stage of irony and wit. However, Banksy is different. He actually manages to be creative, clever, and anonymous. This just takes the cake. I wish that I could view it with my own eyes. In a way, it reminds me of a much less subtle version of "The Museum of Jurassic Technology". Which, by the way, if you live in Los Angeles or near, should also be experienced. |
