Just opened in the West Village, New York: Bansky's animatronics installation "The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill" Moving away from this stencil and street art approach, this new work is receiving rave reviews for it's commentary on our relationship with animals.
From the artist: "I wanted to make art that questioned our relationship with animals and the ethics and sustainability of factory farming, but it ended up as chicken nuggets singing."
The underground artist has been busy in New York. Several of his murals, all featuring giant rats, have popped up on walls and billboards in Lower Manhattan.

Streetsy is a daily street art site. With the rise of Banksy and others, this is a great resource of street art from around the globe. From the site: "Street art is art created in public places, often without permission. Street art is made in a number of mediums, including stencils, stickers, posters, paint, and sculpture. In mathematical, political, criminal, and philosophical terms, streetart is a subset of graffiti."
