- Banksy's 2006 mural of pink-bowed Apache helicopters in Shoreditch was painted over by a previous owner and later rediscovered by the new owner.
- After extensive conservation work, the artwork was carefully removed in eight sections and mounted as a 6ft by 4ft framed mural.
- Specialized cleaning methods were developed to preserve the original spray paint and safely detach the render without damage.
- The mural is scheduled for auction on March 20 at Anderson & Garland with a projected price range between £500,000 and £700,000.
We were astounded to discover that our office building was the canvas for an artwork of this significance, and what was more, it had been painted over by the previous owner.— The owner of the Shoreditch Banksy, who like the elusive artist, wishes to remain anonymous, shared this upon discovering the artwork.
