Madrid. For the second week in a row, London continues to be flooded with graffiti by British street artist Bansky, who left a new work on Monday that belongs to the series already named ‘London Zoo’.
The murals, which he himself publishes on his Instagram profile, amount to eight and the latest has been the figure of a rhinoceros on a wall that simulates climbing a car parked right in front. British media have located it on Westmoor Street in the Charlton neighborhood, southeast of London.
This Sunday, August 11, the artist closed his first “animal” week by confirming the authorship of a glass police booth, which was found to be a piranha fish tank. In the photo that Banksy himself published, an officer looks at the work while taking a photo of it.
In recent days, a cat, a pelican, a wolf on a satellite dish, primates hanging from a bridge, elephants and a goat – the first graffiti – have appeared on London walls and surfaces.
One of the works, stolen
The fourth of the murals, which depicts a wolf on a satellite dish and is located on the top of a building on Rye Lane in the Peckham neighbourhood in the south-east of the British capital, was stolen on Friday 9 August a few hours after it was discovered, according to the British newspaper The Guardian.
The first mural was located on a wall in the Kew Bridge area of Richmond, where it appeared last Monday and which the artist signed on social media without any caption. It was the silhouette of a goat with a surveillance camera pointed at it while it stood on top of a column, from which some rocks fell.
Others later appeared, such as two elephants linking their trunks from the frames of two windows on the streets of Chelsea, or three monkeys swinging from a railway bridge in Shoreditch, east of the capital.
