Graffiti Drawings By Banksy

Exhibitions (2002–2003)
On 19 July 2002, Banksy's first Los Angeles exhibition debuted at 33 1/3 Gallery, a tiny Silverlake venue owned by Frank Sosa. The exhibition, entitled Existencilism, was curated by 33 1/3 Gallery, Malathion, Funk Lazy Promotions, and B+.
In 2003 in an exhibition called Turf War, held in a warehouse, Banksy painted on animals. Although the RSPCA declared the conditions suitable, an animal rights activist chained herself to the railings in protest. He later moved on to producing subverted paintings; one example is Monet's Water Lily Pond, adapted to include urban detritus such as litter and a shopping trolley floating in its reflective waters; another is Edward Hopper's Nighthawks, redrawn to show that the characters are looking at a British football hooligan, dressed only in his Union Flag underpants, who has just thrown an object through the glass window the cafe. These oil paintings were shown at a twelve-day exhibition in Westbourne Grove, London in 2005.
