Bansky does it again!!! Vandals Target Banksy Mural “Art Buff”



One of Banksy‘s most recent works titled “Art Buff” in Folkestone, England has found itself with an interesting addition overnight. The graffiti piece originally appeared two weeks ago in Payers Park in time for the Folkestone art triennial, which has attracted the likes of Yoko Ono. Originally depicting an old woman with headphones staring at empty space atop a plinth, that same empty space was unceremoniously occupied with a spray-painted penis on Sunday evening. The Shepway district council has since overlaid a clear protective sheet onto the piece to prevent further damage but fortunately this most recent artistic addition is not expected to be permanent. Leave your thoughts on the aesthetic value of the updated graffiti piece in the comments below.
