In 2004, Banksy walked into the Louvre in Paris and hung on a wall a picture he had painted resembling the Mona Lisa, but with a yellow smiley face akin to the Wal-Mart character for a face. Though the painting was hurriedly removed by the museum staff, it and its counterpart, temporarily on unknown display at the Tate Britain, were described by Banksy as ‘shortcuts’. He is quoted as saying: “To actually [have to] go through the process of having a painting selected must be quite boring, It’s a lot more fun to go and put your own one up.”

the cave man shit he did in the british natural history museum was on display for 3 days before anyone realized, then the shit he did at Disney was hilarious. He recently did something on a wall that recently sold for like 250,000 quid, and you had to remove the wall yourself.
