Banksy erected a statue in central London, depicting a besuited man blinded by a flag. The installation involved a low-loader and traffic cones, executed swiftly by a highly experienced crew. The operation likely included surveillance of the area to ensure a discreet setup during quiet hours. The statue is located in Waterloo Place, near notable landmarks and has received positive reactions on social media, with many praising it as a classic Banksy piece.
"Under the cover of darkness, the street artist erected a statue on a plinth showing a besuited man walking forward, blinded by a flag covering his face."
"Peak said: 'He's got a really big team who are a very, very experienced crew. They're the sort of dudes who can set up a Metallica concert in 24 hours.'"
"They've probably surveilled the area, worked out what happens when, gone in the early hours with a low-loader truck and they probably sited it in a few minutes, at the quietest time possible."
"Judging by the comments beneath his social media post, it has been very well received. 'Classic Banksy,' says one."
