Team Robbo have tagged (or vandalised) a Banksy piece of street art in Brighton. The Two Kissing Policemen outside the Albert Pub has had ‘Team Robbo’ tagged across its facia.
This piece by Banksy is estimated to be worth anywhere from £500,000 to £1m – and is due to be removed and sold in New York sometime in the near future. Given that the kissing policeman has been drawn on the pub’s property, all money raised from any sale will go straight to the owners of The Albert.
Back Story
There has been a feud between the “Street Artist”, Banksy and the “Old School Tagger”, Robbo for a couple of years. This started with an arguably innocent overstepping of the line from Banksy spraying over some of Robbo’s work in Camden, (See ‘Banksy Wallpaper’ image below) which has opened up the feud and was showcased in the Channel Four documentary “Graffiti wars”.
In December 2009, Robbo decided to come out of retirement to reclaim his territory under Regents St. Canal back from Banksy. Originally it had said Robbo-ing on the wall, which Banksy sprayed over the top, a man wallpapering over the 1980s tag. Robbo and his supporters “Team Robbo” then decided to hit back, turning the wallpaper into the words ‘King Robbo’. Other works of Banksy have been tagged, or altered cleverly to support Robbo’s plethora of work.
So was this actually the work of Team Robbo or just some renegade Brighton tagger? Either way, the piece has been cleaned and the tag has been removed.
