Banksy Mural In London Loses Endangered Pieces Status

Unlike the murals he outsourced here in NYC, most of Banksy's work in London is illegal and done by the artist himself. And while the city council in his hometown of Bristol voted to preserve his work, officials in London aren't as supportive. They're planning on buffing his high profile CCTV piece to "send a message" to the city's vandals, although it's more likely motivated by the content of the piece. There's only one problem though, until they locate the owner of the property, no action can be taken. |Londonist|
