Here are some pictures of the new Banksy art which appeared on a Post Office RIGHT NEXT to a CCTV security camera. The work appeared this week-end, in Newman Street, London. It is his largest work in London to date and uses the theme of the fact we are a nation being watched by CCTV. As you can see from the images it consists of three pieces all brought together as one.
Implications - And before Banksy's work could even be truly appreciated, a crew of scaffolders returned to the scene of the "crime" and buffed the controversial art piece into oblivion. Nevertheless, this video and the images live on, cementing Banksy's image as political hero of the street art movement.
