Banksy - Bristol Museum

I'm not a big art person, I like it but don't spend hours staring at it. I can do an art museum very quickly... But I have always liked Banksy works, there are a lot in and around Farringdon where I lived in my first year in London and I grew to like their quirky ness, detail and messages. I noticed the other day that there's a whole exhibition of his work on in Bristol right now (where he apparently grew up), which I would love to go to. But things are busy right now and I have no time to get there, so instead here are a couple of my favourites from the web. I especially love that the Damien Hirst is an original! What do you think? Do you like them?

I love Banksy! I only wish I'd known about him during his exhibition in LA a few years ago. I was ogling the new stuff on the Beeb site 2 days ago.

Ah that would have been cool to go see it. I guess I'm spoilt by seeing so much of it on the streets that I don't think about the exhibitions but I bet it would be great...
