Yer gonna have to expound on that, comrade.

 

[Tron]

This is my favorite one. Some of the others are trying way too hard.

 

[reno cool]

oh its more of a impressionistic thing pal.
I guess rundown buildings will always say: 1st impressions of US city life to me.
being constrained, put into a box, having to jump through undersized hoops that make little sense. etcetera etcetera. yeah, this is very good indeed

 

[Boner_18]

Yes yes yes. More of this artistic commentary and commentary on art. It's really just quality stuff.

We're purists.

In addition to art there are a few rides, completely impossible fair games, interactive artworks, random live performances and unexpected spectacles happening throughout the day. The entire exhibition is staffed by morose Dismaland employees who seem completely uninterested in being helpful or informative. Getting in requires an uncomfortably awkward NSA-esque screening, and even trying to find the exit required a near herculean effort.

Boy trips in museum and punches hole through painting

I like how he didn't even try to avoid leaning against the painting. I realize that he was caught by surprise, but... if it's a wall in a museum, there's a decent chance it's covered by expensive art.

And what kind of museum allows people to walk around with a drink in their hand?

Looks like that drink was unharmed though, thank goodness.

 

[Matty]

Yes, nice save of a $2 drink right there.

Kay carry on.
