| A Banksy artwork in Nottingham has been removed and people aren't happy.
Banksy's painting of a girl hula-hooping with a bike tyre was on the side of a residential building since October, but has now been bought by Essex gallery owner John Brandler, who says he's paid a "six-figure sum" for it.
Workmen apparently turned up to the building at 5am on February 17 to remove it, then loading it into a van. Brandler says it's been taken to Scotland to be restored ahead of going on show at a street exhibition at Moyse's Hall Museum in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
Local resident Dan Golstein took a photo of a boarded up wall where the piece originally was. |
