BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by coller on Aug 20, 2015 22:23:23 GMT 1, A simple spit in the face could do you good. I don't understand this comment. Anyway since when did 'bird' become offensive lol no offence intended to any injured parties. I also didn't get that memo. The things that offend people on here are so odd.
Oh also, here's the lovely couple:

I hope it doesn't get out of control You'd have to be an idiot to go into a vigilante artist's dismal den and steal a piece of work.
Although then the artists get to play the fun game of "should we price that stolen object at $50, $5,000, or $500,000" as they decide how long they want to keep you in prison.

Not saying these are Banksy's, but Dismaland is 110% based off Disney.

Controlled?
I'd say just as impressive as BOTI. The difference here is there is not the daily rush to find the daily Banksy piece. But there will be the hype around tickets. Tomorrow will be or prime example of how HUGE this show is. In overall execution, this is up there as one of Banksy's best shows.

I don't know. Maybe subject yes. But for display of street art... No.
This should be called dismaland, better in than out.

Conceptually this is far bigger than just a street art show. Its a very well curated experience, and showcases a ton of amazing known and unknown artists, but most importantly, he's using his power to bring tourism and dollars to a town he loves and visited as a kid. They literally warned the town to get ready for a lot of people to come through, it's going to do a lot of good. Thats much bigger and more important than a rat race in NYC.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Love Is In The Air on Aug 20, 2015 23:43:00 GMT 1, Totally agree with above comment about boosting area. Went to WSM as a kid and whilst it was never Britain's best loved beach, it was popular enough for holidays and day trips in 90s. Tropicana, the site this is on, closed as a water ride park in 2000 and think it has been downhill since then in terms of tourism. Banksy will give whole town a lift, it is a brilliant gesture. Makes me love him even more.

If this is controlled, then you must hate bricks and morter galleries. New art and many artists, interactive installations and a venue for thevwekends.. I can't see what's not to like.

"On December 17, 2014, [Bobby Shmurda] was arrested by New York City Police, who alleged that he was the ringleader of a Crips gang known as GS9... which shot indiscriminately into public crowds and is rumored to have murdered a member of a rival gang. [Shmurda] has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder, multiple weapons possession, and reckless endangerment as part of a 15-person, 69-count indictment that included his brother Javese and fellow GS9 label-mate Rowdy Rebel."
