    Protect it, sure, but don’t remove it. It’s location is part of the art.

      Unfortunately, someone would vandalise it or try and steal it in some way. The best they can do is move it into the zoo behind a protective screen of some kind imo.

        One persons vandalism is another persons art.

        No doubt if someone else claimed responsibility for it, it would already have been washed off.

          Tagging or defacing a banksy is not “art”. The art here can be appreciated by anyone, I think the idea is that the Gorilla opened the zoo and the animals are escaping, so the rest of London has the animals all over it
