A Work That Reflects Moco’s Vision
At Moco Museum London, art is presented as a living conversation. The museum brings together artists who challenge norms, question systems, and speak directly to the world we inhabit now. This collaboration between Banksy and Damien Hirst sits at the heart of that vision.
Vandalised Spot Painting (Banlofen) reflects the tensions that shape contemporary culture. Order and chaos. Authority and resistance. Market structures and subversive humour. Banksy’s rat does not erase Hirst’s system, it coexists within it, suggesting that critique and conformity are inseparable forces in today’s art world.
For Moco, this is what contemporary art does best. It opens space for contradiction without resolving it.
Five Months Only in London
This is a five-month exclusive showing at Moco Museum London, after which the artwork will no longer be on public view at the museum. For visitors, collectors, and art lovers, this is a rare opportunity to encounter a pivotal collaboration in person.
Seeing the work up close reveals details that photographs cannot capture. The surface tension between gloss paint and spray paint. The precise geometry disrupted by an unexpected figure. The quiet humour embedded in the act of vandalism itself.
Visitors can experience the artwork as part of their regular visit to Moco Museum London during the exhibition period.
Experience it in person at Moco Museum London
Moco Museum London continues to showcase works by artists who have shaped modern and contemporary culture. With this new arrival, the museum strengthens the dialogue between street art and fine art, rebellion and institution, play and seriousness.
Visitors are invited to step inside, slow down, and spend time with a work that asks as many questions as it answers.
Vandalised Spot Painting (Banlofen) by Banksy and Damien Hirst is on view at Moco Museum London from January 23rd for a five-month exclusive period.
