The newest addition to the UK’s Walker Art Gallery is a statue of a Priest “vandalised” by Banksy.
According to liverpoolmuseums.org.uk:
“The renowned graffiti artist has sawn off the face of an 18th Century replica stone bust and glued on a selection of bathroom tiles. The resulting ‘pixellated’ portrait is entitled ‘Cardinal Sin’ and is believed to be a comment on the abuse scandal in the Church and its subsequent cover-up.”
