Renowned for his gorilla graffiti subverting pop culture and and commercialism, Banksy surprised everyone on an even grander scale this week as he unveiled his dystopian nightmarish art exhibition/theme park 'Dismaland'.
Billed as a 'bemusement' park, the exhibition, located in Britain's popular holiday getaway Weston-super-Mare, contains the works of over 50 world-renowned artists and displays them in a park described as a 'sinister twist on Disneyland', sinister being a massive understatement. Filled with bizarre twists on your stereotypical theme park (apathetic staff in hi-viz jackets lead are available to 'guide' you if needs be), with social issues of corruption, injustice and politics being tackled in various works of art by the likes of Damian Hirst, this is not a typical fun day out.
If that sounds right up your street however, you can book tickets on dismaland.co.uk but you'll need to move fast as the park is only open until September 27th.
