The petitioner requests that Bristol City Council rejects calls from Conservative Cllr Spud Murphy to remove the Banksy painting on Park Street at significant expense, and instead keeps it as a popular and amusing asset to the city for so long as Bristol residents continue to support it.
The art in question.
I spent a splendidly sunny Saturday morning on Kirchberg -- not just Luxembourg's quartier Européen, but also the site of a huge amount of public spending into some rather fine modern architecture: Christian de Portzamparc's Philharmonie and IM Pei's Musée d'Art Moderne.
Fortunately for me, the Philharmonie was actually open for a group of fashion photographers (or so it seemed). I did get to take some nice shots of the entrance hall before I was very politely shown the door by a security guard.
At MUDAM, I wasn't surprised to once again find the architecture more impressive than the art shown, this time, a number of works by the late Michel Majerus. Fortunately, MUDAM has an enlightened photo policy: As long as you don't use the flash, they'll leave you alone.
