Banksy and JR! MCASD, San Diego | Downtown

Just exited the amazing urban art show @ mcasd downtown; remarkable, riveting, inspiring, bracing, direct, and moving. Don't miss it. The star? Banksy, of course, example opposite from London's V&A Museum.

But you know who steals the show? JR from Paris--Women are Heroes..... remarkable... this tiny video will not do it justice! Go to the show!
