Seven days, seven works of art: British street artist Banksy continues his animal paintings in London today. A glass traffic police station decorated with fish was discovered in London last week. Animals seem to swim around the cabin as if they were in an aquarium.
Today, like all previous weekdays, the world-renowned artist posted an uncommented photo of the motif on the online service Instagram. London Police confirmed: “We are aware of criminal damage to a police box in Ludgate Hill.”
New job every day from Monday
All the works feature animals: a goat appeared on the wall of a house in Richmond, west London, on Monday, and two elephants on a facade in London’s Chelsea district on Tuesday. On Wednesday, three monkeys were found on a railway bridge in East London’s Shoreditch district, where a painting by Banksy had been painted.
The work, which appeared on Thursday, shows a howling wolf on a satellite dish above an abandoned shop in Peckham, south-east London, hours after it was stolen. Photographs released by British media showed the suspected thief using a ladder to remove the satellite dish from the roof while an accomplice waited below. The results of the investigation are unknown.
On Friday, Banksy painted a pelican over a fish and chip shop in Walthamstow, east London, followed by a cat on a billboard in the city’s northwest yesterday. The operating company said the work was terminated due to safety concerns.
