That was hilarious. Whoever paid all that money to see their Banksy purchase shred was cringeworthy but all the more reason why Banksy continues to be an prolific artist of his time and Palms took notice.
If you’re a lover of graffiti art, and if you like to eat (who doesn’t), then you’ll enjoy Greene St. Kitchen. It is home to a permanent work by Banksy.
The art titled “Smiley Coppers Panel I” is casually hanging behind the DJ booth at the heart of the restaurant inside the Palms Casino Resort. In true Banksy style, the spray-painted piece illustrates two identical armed police officers revealing yellow smiley faces underneath their helmets.
Other artists’ work can be seen everywhere else. Guests enter a hidden vending machine door and through a tunnel painted by New York City-based artist CES. The entire art love affair was curated by Tal Cooperman, creative director at Palms.
