Barely legal

You probably know by now that I like the work of 'street artist' Banksy, so I was pleased to find photos of his recent Los Angeles gallery show.

A surprising number of pieces were 'reissues', already published in his (excellent) book, and I'm not entirely sure what he was saying about the art world by selling works for ~$100,000 each, but the photos are worth seeing.

Oh, and those who complained about temporarily dying a trained elephant pink red: reconsider your priorities.
