Amsterdam street art

Jailing Banksy art inside a museum seems counter to his street art goals. Still, it was fun to see a collection that in many cases had to be cut out of walls. I learned that he printed one million pounds worth of the "Di-Faced Tenner" (a play on "defaced") that substituted the Queen's face with Princess Diana and added the words "Banksy of England" before spreading them all over town, some of which went into circulation. We decided to do some of our own street art — Julie photobombed my Gummy Bear photo and then we did performance art with the Night Watchmen at Rembrandt Plaza to create our own Dutch masterpieces.
