Banksy installation under the High Line. Basically it’s a gallery exhibition with two large paintings in it, on public property, with yellow caution tape guarded by huge guys in uniforms who only let in a few people at a time. The paintings are colorful anti-authoritarian little numbers.

Again: Banksy has stationed guards on public property to keep you from getting too close to his anarchist paintings. You have his permission to laugh.
