Pirana Aquarium on Police Kiosk; Banksi’s work went to the museum

Police guard kiosk, a famous graffiti artist Benxi, created a five -day period along with other works of art in various parts of London in recent summer, is scheduled to be permanently displayed at the new London Museum. Banksi had created the police kiosk in the form of a fish aquarium.

Created by a pirana fish, the kiosic is one of the five animals themes that this anonymous British street artist created in a recent August in the British capital.

Other works of the collection include a rhino mounted on a car, two elephants that extend their kicks, and three monkeys hanging from a bridge.

The London Museum, located in the Smithfield area in central London, will open in year 6. Pirana’s painting was added to the museum after the London municipality gave it to the museum.

Sharon Among, director of the London Museum, said in a statement:

The only thing better than seeing a Banksy work on the walls is having one of the Banksi’s works inside the museum. No other artist, such as Banksi, is so sincere, powerful, humorous and honestly communicating with people. If you are lucky, a Banksy artwork may appear at the end of your street, and this is always a special moment. Banksi brings art to the streets, and this is for everyone.

The guard kiosk, installed in Ludgate Hill in London in the 1980s, after Banksi officially confirmed that Graffiti was his work, to Gilde Delhi Yard, a public and private space for holding Events were transferred.

The work will first be temporarily kept in the London Museum warehouses and will then find its permanent place in the new museum building.

The London Museum was moved to Smithfield from its old place, near the wall of London (the first defensive wall built by the Romans). The municipality of London has allocated £ 5million to the project and the Barbican Art Center. The new museum is expected to attract two million visitors annually and create more than 2.5 jobs.

When this collection of animal wall paintings first appeared in different parts of London, there were many discussions and speculation about their possible meaning. However, the official organization of protecting the works of Banki, Pest Control Office, announced that these works lack a specific meaning.

Benxi is a Bristol Graphicist artist who has a worldwide reputation with his wall paintings and graphic arts, yet his original identity has not yet been revealed. The artist’s paintings have focused more on political issues and issues such as global heat, war, illegal listening and hard work. So far, the artist’s paintings have been separated from the wall and sold for hundreds of thousands of pounds.
