A group of thieves were thwarted after they attempted to steal a mural by the renowned street artist Banksy on the outskirts of Kyiv, a Ukrainian official said Friday. He said the thieves “were detained at the scene,” and the image was “undamaged” and under the protection of law enforcement officers. A vocal anti-war activist, Banksy has also painted murals in Gaza and the West Bank. His work, normally sprayed on the sides of buildings, has been threatened by thieves before. In June, eight were convicted in Paris over the 2019 theft of a Banksy mural at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris which commemorated the victims of a 2015 terror attack at the venue.

Ukraine's success in Kherson, where its troops now control more than 60 regional settlements, as well as in other places, benefited partly from resistance in the Donetsk region, despite repeated Russian attacks, Zelenskiy added. "There it is just hell - there are extremely fierce battles there every day," he said. In a telephone call, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi emphasised "further enhancing cooperation in the political, trade and economic fields, including the transport and logistics sector," the Kremlin said on Saturday.

Bansky revealed a mural in Ukranian village Borodyanka Friday, which was left devastated by Russian forces early on in the invasion. The artist unveiled the mural of a female gymnast on Instagram with three pictures and the caption "Borodyanka, Ukraine."

The owner of the America’s Best Value Inn in Butte, Montana, got a peculiar call from an employee one summer day a few years ago. In Room 206, a mundane piece of hotel art, a pink print of a rose from the mid-1990s, had been painted over with a wide-eyed cartoon beaver. “My head housekeeper at the time said ‘There’s been vandalism,’ ” recalls Andy Burton, who has owned the motel for 33 years. “I said ‘Well...it is but it isn’t. It’s quirky.’”
Un desen de Banksy decupat din zidul pe care a fost realizat va fi expus la un muzeu britanicO lucrare a artistului stradal Banksy urmează să fie expusă în premieră la un muzeu britanic după ce a fost decupată din zidul lateral al unei clădiri, relatează vineri BBC, notează AGERPRES. Opera a fost cumpărată de John Brandler, proprietarul unei galerii, și decupată din zid pentru a fi „păstrată în condiții de siguranță”, spre dezamăgirea locuitorilor din zonă. Apariția desenului a stârnit interesul locuitorilor, care s-au așezat la coadă pe stradă pentru a-l admira, însă acesta a fost decupat din zid după ce Brandler a cumpărat opera în schimbul unei „sume din șase cifre”. Potrivit lui Dan Clarke, „din punct de vedere al muzeului”, decuparea lucrării este lăudabilă, în special pentru că a fost „destul de vandalizată”. El a precizat că Brandler a cheltuit mii de lire sterline pentru a proteja opera de artă.

O pictură realizată de celebrul artist stradal Banksy a fost vândut la licitaţie cu peste 19 milioane de euro. Lucrarea reprezintă un omagiu adus medicilor şi înfăţişează un băieţel jucându-se cu o păpuşă infirmieră, în timp ce figurinele lui Superman şi Batman sunt aruncate la gunoi. Scoasă la licitaţie, opera de artă intitulată "Game Changer" era estimată la cel mult 4 milioane de euro, însă a ajuns să fie vândută la un preţ record pentru Banksy.

Британский художник Бэнкси на своей странице в Instagram опубликовал фотографию своей новой работы. Граффити расположено на стене дома в Бристоле и называется «Апчхи!». Она чихнула настолько сильно, что из ее рук выпали трость и сумочка, а изо рта вылетела вставная челюсть. Так как графити находится в начале улицы с резким подъемом, то создается впечатление, что от бабушкиного чиха покосилось все, что расположено там.
