Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by buffin on Jun 15, 2009 7:22:46 GMT 1, Not seen a mention but just wonder how John Nation is feeling. Prosecuted and vilified in the press for encouraging art and artists at Barton Hill to a show at the City museum with people flying in from all over to see it!
To quote Banksy, "it might sound a little crazy but I think John Nation, that shouty red-faced little social worker who made it all happen, has had more impact on the shape of British culture over the past 20 years than anyone else to come from the city"
John Nation we salute you.

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by doublehelix on Jun 15, 2009 12:42:13 GMT 1, Went on Sat afternoon, drove down from West Yorkshire. The sheer amount of work and the quality of the execution is mind blowing. From me a perfect 10, even with the queues to get in and then to see the Banksy room:

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by silvermyn on Jun 15, 2009 12:53:20 GMT 1, I don't get why the PC website states (and has stated for some time) that there is currently nothing available when it seems that there was work available at the preview.
A tad misleading me thinks...

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by doublehelix on Jun 15, 2009 13:02:47 GMT 1, I guess it means nothing is available for us regular plebeian. I would have loved one of the little sketches from the studio installation. Apparently prices on the night ranged from bloody reasonable right up to silly money.

I figured as much it just feels like they are deceiving the masses.
Maybe they ought to just take that wording down and remain silent on the point. Seems to work well for POW.
