Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by Daniel Silk on Oct 12, 2009 13:22:38 GMT 1, Did the Museum get to chose on this piece or did Banksy
Think it was supposed to be a joint decision.

The Crude oils were mostly from private collections so they couldn't donate one of those.

Yeah, the PR of having a quality piece up in display in the Bristol City Museum for years to come!  is a great opportunity, even for Banksy.
Plus I don't see this choice really making much sense displayed on its own

I agree with you Silky a missed opportunity i think... perhaps the museum were nervous about theft/damage if it had been more iconic???

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by Fragile on Oct 12, 2009 16:04:33 GMT 1, This piece looks very odd at the musuem, just there all alone. It's still in the same place as it was originally located. I was looking forward to seeing Monkey Parliament again, alas it was not to be.

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by buffin on Oct 12, 2009 19:25:52 GMT 1, Really liked this from the show and think it will go down well at the museum as it does not need any explanation. Sure it will liven up the visit of many school parties. Think there was a monkey on bomb canvas on display before the show - not sure if this was on loan or another donation to the museum. Either way we do not know for sure if the angel has been donated, or if it has, is the only donation.

IMO it's a typical Banksy.

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by BK83 on Oct 13, 2009 0:23:11 GMT 1, Although one of the crude oils, or one of his paintings may have spoken more to Banksy's signature subversive art, I think this choice speaks to Banksy the graffiti vandal and therefore more of a statement about Banksy. I like this choice.

Hmmm probably about the two weakest pieces from the show Cant understand why the museum would pick them, or even why Banksy would leave them to represent his work Very strange.

It is called 'city of sorrow' and had a guide price of US$175,000 in Bethlehem.
