British street artist Banksy posted a photo of his latest work of art on Instagram on Friday: he had depicted three drones on a stop sign. The Brit usually announces his authorship with a photo on Instagram.
Just a few minutes later, two men appeared at the stop sign at the intersection in London. One climbed up, hit the sign with bolt cutters and was able to remove it after a few minutes.
The two men then fled. It was initially unclear who the men were and why they had removed the sign – although a genuine Banksy artwork would likely fetch a high price on the black market.
Banksy initially included no reference or title in his post. It was considered possible that the artist was opposed to the use of drones to specifically kill people. The US is accused of using ‘Predator’ drones to kill suspected terrorists.
It is not the first time this year that a work by the artist has been removed. For Valentine’s Day, he spray-painted a painting in typical style on the wall of a house in Margate, southeast England. The image draws attention to the problem of domestic violence. It was disassembled to protect it from damage and initially placed in an amusement park. (SDA/neo)
