Banksy / Discuss

melfeasance says:

Most of us around here are quite familiar with the things Banksy did with an African theme...







...but how many of us knew he was physically in Africa doing graffiti? Not many - until we saw what he did there in the drawings and photos now on display in the recreated studio part of his exhibition Banksy Versus Bristol Museum.





Of the above photo, Olly C says:

I've seen this one in the flesh. Its in the suburbs of Bamako in Mali, West Africa. Banksy was there about 4-5 months ago. Sadly this has been partially painted over, Peaches Geldoff is no more and somebody has added a flower to the collection tin. There's also a few local tags scribbled on the same wall.

There are a handful in Mali, stretching from Bamako to Timbuktu. Their locations are still unpublicised as far as I can tell.

If you have any more information about his trip to Africa, or have photos of work he did there, please share it with us. Cheers.
