Once again, Banksy rests on Sunday and instead of revealing a new piece of public art, he released a YouTube video instead. The footage shows an older man operating an art table outside of Central Park on what is assumed to be Saturday, peddling “spray art” canvasses for only $60 a pop. And they were […]
A day after rolling out his “Sirens of the Lambs” truck, Banksy gets back to stenciling and strikes theological overtones with the newest piece in his ongoing series. It’s called “Concrete Confessional” and is located within a concrete block on 7th Street off of Cooper Square in the East Village, right across the street from […]

Apparently spurred by the recent death of her mother, the woman shrieks “God you are my savior” over and over and over, unfazed by her fellow passengers’ attempts to assuage her grief. It is scary, […]
Oh my god! There’s a Dunkin Donuts now open on Bedford and North 7th Street. How will the artist community handle this corporate invasion? Will the mom & pops shops be ok? Where did the mom & pops shops go? I could have sworn I still saw a bodega here last month… Anyway, I asked […]

It’s called The Sirens of the Lambs, and it’s apparently going to be rolling through the Meatpacking District today. The audio guide isn’t working for us, but we’ll update if and when it does. UPDATE:The truck […]

The scent of baby wipes and powder is overwhelming inside the small installation space at Kianga Ellis Projects. It’s a functioning conceptual component of Nursery, an inaugural exhibition of General Howe’s latest Tumblr project The Animated Disasters of War GIFs. The artist has turned the project room into a fully functioning nursery, complete with a crib and changing station as well […]
ANIMAL’s feature Game Plan asks video game developers to share a bit about their process and some working images from the creation of a recent game. This week, we spoke with Nicolò Tedeschi and Pietro Riva from Italian indie studio Santa Ragione about MirrorMoon EP, a dreamy PC game in which players navigate alien planets using reflective […]
