The BANKSY Q EXHIBITION



I went to THE BANKSY Q show of those who queued and all of their drawings during the summer of 2009, more than 300 000 people queued to see the Banksy vs Bristol Museum exhibition. They waited in all weathers for up to four hours to get in. The People's Republic of Stokes Croft saw the queue as possibly Banksy's greatest work of art and asked the queuers to 'express themselves' on specially made cards. They lost a lot of pens and a lot of cards, but in the end managed to collect about 3500 artworks. Katy Bauer, who conceived and ran the project, also filmed and took snapshots.
