Banksy | New Orleans


Check out photos from Banksy's recent trip to New Orleans for the 3rd anniversary of Hurricane Katrina on his site here.  Don't miss the caption at the top of the photo of the green building with Bush sitting in the rocking chair holding the American flag.

Banksy on his trip to New Orleans:
I came to New Orleans to do battle with the Gray Ghost, a notorious vigilante who's been systematically painting over any graffiti he can find with the same shade of grey paint since 1997.
Consequently he's done more damage to the culture of the city than any section five hurricane could ever hope to achieve.
More photos of Banksy's work from the Flickr group Banksy Does New Orleans here.  Photo of Banksy unfortunately buffed here.
