news Banksy Comes to Toronto!







—We got our hands on four more photos of four more new pieces in Toronto by either Banksy or someone doing an awfully good Banksy impression—one piece in Chinatown, and three more close to the waterfront (but not to each other). The latest additions start in the gallery above, here. Spot any others? Email [email protected].

—Just as fast, the pieces are starting to disappear. This one, which was located at Adelaide and Brant, was gone as of this morning:

…and we’ve heard from a few people now (including commenters) that this one, on the back of a sign in the Port Lands, has vanished, too.

—With the CBC now reporting that Banksy’s publicist has confirmed that at least some of the pieces are real work, and with all other evidence pointing in the direction of our earliest hunch, it’s time we ditched the question mark in this article’s original title (“Banksy Comes to Toronto?”) for an exclamation point. We’re as certain as we can be that these works are the real thing.
