Things I Like: Banksy’s Pet Store installation in NYC
Posted by Miss Info under life beyond rap , photos , things I like , videos[11] Comments
Over on 7th ave. between West 4th and Bleecker St, vandal-artist Banksy has built a pet shop of robots and processed meats, lol. It’ll be open until Midnite, every day until Halloween. And I hear unknowing folks have been walking into the petshop actually trying to buy pet supplies, lol. The packed shelves with products reminds me of this Bodega art installation that Reas aka Todd James did years ago….

Love it! Great post Miss Info.
I’ve been running around London tracking down some of the original Banksy stuff. You know, like, before he like, sold out and stuff. LOL.

Hello. This is kind of an “unconventional” question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you’ve got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this …so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I’ll just keep working on it one day at a time Thanks for any help you can offer here
