Banksy Gifts

The title covers two Banksy news items. His documentary film Exit Through The Gift Shop, "the world's first street art disaster movie", is being given its TV premiere on Channel 4 at 9pm this evening. The second item is about the success of his generous subsidy to the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) in Los Angeles, so that visitors could enter free on Mondays to see Art In The Streets (CLICK). The exhibition attracted 201,352 visitors by 8 August, a record for MOCA (CLICK). According to the BBC, on average more than 4000 visitors attended on the free day with an average of 2,486 people visiting on other days of the week (title link). Nice one, Banksy.
