This is one show that had its fair share of critics “The Art Of Banksy” featuring art purchased by various collectors on display in a faux London street scape.

I myself am a big fan as are many are of Banksy’s work as it is what street art was originally about and that is using the street to convey a message about war, hunger, greed, politicians and the list goes on.

It was great to see the works up close but something just didn’t feel right, some of the works felt out of place on a clean sterile wall, as they definitely need to be viewed in their natural environment on the street in some grimy alley way.

This show also featured art on 3 metre panels by some of Melbourne’s best showcasing various styles and techniques that Melbourne has become famous for, and why some people regard it as one of the best locations for street art in the world.
