(Montreal) A long-lost work by British artist Banksy has resurfaced in a swanky art gallery in downtown Tel Aviv, an hour’s drive from the concrete wall of the occupied West Bank where it had been originally painted.
Posted at 1:37 p.m.
The painting first appeared near Israel’s separation barrier in the occupied West Bank city of Bethlehem, and is one of many works created in secret around 2007.
He now resides at the Urban Gallery, in the heart of Tel Aviv’s financial district, surrounded by skyscrapers of glass and steel.
