Bright Bright Great Loves Banksy West Loop Chicago
Bright Bright Great had the lovely opportunity to step out and check out a Banksy piece in the West Loop in Chicago. Rumor had it that this went up late last week, which didn’t exactly correspond with the opening of Exit Through The Gift Shop, Banksy’s new movie, but could potentially have aligned with a Banksy appearance, or lack thereof.
The piece is dope. It’s located at Randolph & Peoria in the West Loop of Chicago. You DEFINITELY need to check it out.
Apparently this piece was symbolic from a scene from The Untouchables, which was shot in Chicago’s Union Station, where a woman is caught in military crossfire in turn pushes a baby carriage down a flight of stairs. Skip to the 6:00 mark.
Update: Piece is still up as of 5/18.
