Breaking news(or possibly breaking wind)
youtube world exclusive.........The story so far.
date 19th june 07

On the 18th june residents of Chilkwell street in Glastonbury, Somerset, UK,
(home of the Glastonbury festival which is 7 miles up the road)
Woke up to find that overnight a large work of graffiti, or vandalism, had appeared on a white wall next to a herb garden which overlooked the main road to Pilton.
The word on the street is that its a genuine Bansky!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banksy

It is unsigned and I am told by a local talented graffiti artist that Banksy signs his work!

The circumstancial evidence is strong.
Bansky's home town is the city of Bristol, 30 miles away.
There are examples of his graffiti in the city of Wells which is 7 miles away.
And apparently another smaller piece in another location in glastonbury.
The style is totally like Bansky!
It is a proffesional piece of painting, nothing amateurish about it.
The weeds against the wall in front of the teddy bear have not been disturbed or broken!
if it was vandalism there would be paint all over the pavement, not a drop m'lud!
If it turns out to be a Bansky then it will instantly be shapeshifted from an act of vandalism into a national treasure and tourist attraction! and the property on which the graffiti sprayed will increase dramatically in value!
If it isnt a Banksy then its still a fine piece of public art!
The real vandalism is the busy traffic that roars through a quiet rural town, demolishing whatever character the place may have!
The timing seems to be suspiciously designed to coincide with the Glastonbury festival! with just enough time for the media to get hold of the story and spread the word so that the 10,000's of festival goers who will be driving past that very same wall in a few days will slow down to see tha Banski mural thereby causing huge traffic jams and tailbacks!
We will see.
The fate of this public art now hangs in the balance!
The police are investigating.....

Special thanks to Mike, Adam and Anna, my informants!
and to Elisabeth with an S from Holland who played the violin on the market cross in the town.

@WestsideNigger1

Okay!

I drive pass this wall everyday. It's utterly sickening to see that some idiot with a tin of white paint has vandelised this artwork. A real shame. Was it the local police who did it? They couldn't even be bothered to do a good job of coating the whole building.

Hi Labruskie

Thanks for your comment! I made a new video of the vandalized mural so people can see what your talking about. Its the video response to this video.

Hi there, you've probably heard by now that some numbskull has now painted, or partially, painted over, this Banksy painting?

I took pics of this painting whilst the festival was still running; not that it matters now but you can see them in the album: "Glastonbury, the Isle of Avalon" from the Wesbshots link on my profile page. I agree with you about the traffic problem: time it was stopped. Mike.

Hi, mikesey1

Yeh, half expected it, the surface the mural is on is pretty unstable and flaky, can't imagine it lasting more than a few years! tho its a great wall for an artistic mural/graffiti treatment!
