First look: NYC's new Banksy Museum is a love letter to the artist
Briefly

We recreated the street to respect the rule of street art because the work has to be reproduced on a wall and can't be sold, says museum founder Hazis Vardar...
Vardar's devotion to his new project and the artist that inspires it is made clear through the precision of the works on display: all reproductions, also made by anonymous artists, minutely resemble the original works they are inspired by...
Banksy's murals, after all, are just as ephemeral as the artist himself... his street art often gains attention because of its temporary nature and unpredictable locations...
Almost 80% of these works have been destroyed already or white washed, explains Vardar. You can't see them anymore.
