Admin phantom Posted October 11, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Not sure if these pictures are of interest to anyone? I was working in Croydon today and managed to get time to visit banksy's latest exhibition Sadly the sun was causing a bit of a reflection of the windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Thanks for posting the pics @phantom, I love his stuff. It’s pretty warped but appeals to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in Croydon last week for an interview and tried to find it, I probably walked past it, as I saw the Pure Gym sign… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reigate Red Posted October 12, 2019 Report Share Posted October 12, 2019 I work in Croydon but had forgotten about this - will take a walk down next week. Not a lot, that isn't for the wrong reasons, usually happens in Croydon. Mind you it has not been a topic of conversation in the office so not sure how popular it has been.

CyderInACan Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 Does anyone remember the Banksy exhibition in the Severnshed (I think) in about 1999/2000? I went with @77 punk & a few others and whilst he was relatively (in)famous in Bristol I'm not sure he had yet turned into the behemoth he was destined to become. You could tell at the time the stuff was good but man alive I wish I had bought something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
