Second Banksy Mural Defaced

A second mural in central Bristol by the graffiti artist Banksy has been defaced, reports BBC News. The Mild Mild West, which depicts policemen and a bear, has been splattered with blue paint. On Monday, a picture painted on the side of a wall in the city’s Park Street was vandalized with blue paint splashes. The image, which was due to be restored on Wednesday, shows a naked man hanging from a windowsill. Businessman Albert Murphy, conservative councilor for Avonmouth, said he was using his own cherry picker to clean the Park Street work. “The council won't do it because they haven’t got the facilities to do it and we have. We’re going to remove the biodegradable paint first, then it can be cleaned off with soapy water, and then we’ll start on the picture.” In April, a group called Appropriate Media sprayed the Mild Mild West with red paint as a protest over the Stokes Croft area of the city being gentrified. The Mild Mild West was voted Bristol’s favorite alternative landmark in an online poll in 2007. Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery is showing an exhibition of Banksy’s work, which is due to run for twelve weeks.
