WHERE TO SEE BANKSY
10:40 - 22 September 2006
There are plenty of places where Banksy's graffiti can still be seen in the city.Opposite the Granary on Welsh Back, Banksy created a mural under the words "There's all this noise but you ain't saying nothing".
On Stokes Croft, a large mural entitled "Mild Mild West" shows a giant teddy bear hurling a petrol bomb at riot police.
A spooky figure in a canoe, below, was put up on the side of floating nightclub club Thekla but was painted over - despite a vote by clubbers to keep the artwork.
On the wall of Brook Young People's Clinic in Unity Street a naked man is hanging from a window, which another man is looking out of. A woman, perhaps his wife, is standing behind him and appears to be half naked.
The image, which can be seen from Park Street, sparked controversy when first put up and the council held a poll over whether to keep it.
This week it emerged that because the building is listed, the image may have to be painted over.
Your Views
the last time I looked (about a month ago) the boatman reaper was still on the side of the Thekla. Maybe you are mistaken - the first tag Banksy put on it was painted over (apparently by the port authority), so he returned and put on the boatman reaper.

Banksy • Grim Reaper • Thekla in Bristol, by kj on Apr 3, 2008 16:22:42 GMT 1, Just wondering, does this still exist? I might be going to Bristol soon and I haven't seen this one yet so it'll be something to put on my "to do" list if it's still about...

Banksy • Grim Reaper • Thekla in Bristol, by hibster on Oct 13, 2022 7:49:54 GMT 1, it was cut out as part of the refit of the thekla, the plan being that they would rotate the artist each time they do this - it was an inkie next in - what 2014? not looked for a while so not sure whats on there at the moment
but yes, the original was indeed removed & is now hanging in the m shed

Banksy • Grim Reaper • Thekla in Bristol, by churchwood on Oct 13, 2022 10:59:12 GMT 1, went on a boat ride must have been late 2019 and there was definitely still an Inkie in its place on the Thekla. The original in M-shed is pretty cool and in fact M-Shed in general is pretty interesting if you havent been (this is just a general observation rather than assuming people havent been) plus it gets me some exxxxxxtra words
