‘Unauthorised’ Banksy exhibition comes to London

An exhibition of works by the anonymous artist Banksy is opening in London on Thursday 20th May. The ‘unauthorised’ exhibition is made up of works in private hands, but has come under fire from the artist. Organisers say it is an important opportunity for a wide audience to see ‘iconic’ works which would otherwise not be on public display.
