Who needs Bansky? Mural decorates park wall in tribute to veterans
Forget Bansky! He’s old news.
Councilman Vincent Gentile convinced dozens of people to spend Sunday afternoon painting a wall in a public park in Bay Ridge. But unlike Bansky, the famous British graffiti artist who spent the month of October “decorating” dozens of public spaces in New York City in the dead of night, Gentile and his helpers weren’t hiding while they were working.
The councilman and his volunteers, including several elementary school students, were using paint and brushes to pay tribute to military veterans.
