Banksy opened a shop in London after a greeting-cards company tried to seize the custody of the artist’s name. The shop features the famous stab vest worn by rapper Stormzy, a ‘Tony the Tiger’ rug and a ‘Baby Mobile’ crib, among other things
LONDON - Banksy has set up a “homewares” store in a south London suburb, displaying politically-provocative pieces such as the Union Jack stab-proof vest he designed for British rapper Stormzy.
But the shop will not be open to the public and all sales will be undertaken online, Banksy said in an Instagram post. The shop had come about as a greeting cards company had been trying to seize custody of the name Banksy and the artist said he had been advised the best way to prevent this was to sell his own range of branded merchandise.
A sign says it is designed to be a “conversation piece - especially if the conversation centers around the UK spending over 7.8 million pounds a year on tooth extractions for the under 5’s”.
