banksy's Village Pet Store And Charcoal Grill

“New Yorkers don’t care about art, they care about pets. So I’m exhibiting them instead. I wanted to make art that questioned our relationship with animals and the ethics and sustainability of factory farming, but it ended up as chicken nuggets singing. I took all the money I made exploiting an animal in my last show and used it to fund a new show about the exploitation of animals. If its art and you can see it from the street, I guess it could still be considered street art.” - Banksy.

the chicken nuggets are the best part. i love that they're drinking bbq sauce.

i wish i was going up to nyc soon so i could see it. i couldn't really tell, is it a full store where you can go in and walk around or is all that just visible from the street?

the store is open daily, but only about 20 people fit inside at a time.
