They originally flew in a few days ahead to enjoy a good old geek session in the Rijks and Van Gogh museums before we appeared though, and with that planted firmly in my head, I wondered if they\u2019d fancy a wander around the Moco Museum and its Banksy exhibition too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, I\u2019m not\na modern or contemporary art fan. It doesn\u2019t do anything for me. What can I\nsay, I just prefer the old fashioned stuff? I like to enter into a long gone\nworld and read the history behind it. Part of the beauty for me is the mystery\nof the past. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Why Banksy then?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guess what, I\u2019m also not politically minded. When people\nmention Brexit I just shudder and hope no more questions follow. What I enjoy\nabout Banksy\u2019s work is the tongue in cheek nature that runs parallel to the\nmore serious message. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We arrived at about quarter past 11 for our time slot of\nhalf past and walked straight in, past the crowd forming at the door. I was\nquite taken aback by how small the museum actually was. It was also pretty busy.\nI wasn\u2019t so surprised by that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were told to take the staircases to the top of the\nbuilding, and make our way down, which seemed like sterling advice, so we made\nour way up there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, I don\u2019t want to give too much away about the museum, as I know that I personally prefer to explore something new for myself \u2013 and maybe you do too. In that case, I\u2019ll add a little photo diary of what we saw. I hope you enjoy it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-377\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY.jpg 384w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><figcaption>A gloomy day, perfect for a few inside shenanigans!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY10.jpg 512w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY10-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY10-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption>Rude Copper (2002) &#8211; Banksy<br>Moco Museum, Amsterdam<br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Ok, so naturally, Rude Copper made us all giggle a little bit. How could it not?! But what&#8217;s Banksy&#8217;s message?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A theory is that Banksy wants us to take caution in the trust we give to authority figures. The forceful middle finger gesturing at the onlooker almost appears to jump out of the image itself. It&#8217;s a real kick in the teeth, and not something we would ever consider to come from a policeman. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p> Here the benevolent stereotype of the Bobby is turned on its head as the figure glares out at us, half in shadow, with an insolent stare, suggesting in fact that he might be an impersonator, rather than a true copper, who has adopted the uniform in a sharp satire of modern policing methods. <\/p><cite>Words taken from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myartbroker.com\/artist\/banksy\/rude-copper\/\">MyArtbroker<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-383\" width=\"378\" height=\"504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY2.jpg 384w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY2-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 378px) 100vw, 378px\" \/><figcaption>Christ With Shopping Bags (2004)<br> Moco Museum, Amsterdam <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet another piece of art that made me laugh initially. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Banksy&#8217;s message with his iconic Christ With Shopping Bags image, mocks consumerism of the masses around Christmas. Banksy is letting us know just how far we&#8217;ve fallen when thinking about the real message of Christmas. Instead of remembering the Christmas story &amp; an important time in the Christian calendar, we have become preoccupied and obsessed with how many &#8216;things&#8217; we can possess. Naturally, this is most obviously seen at Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY3.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"384\" data-link=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=384\" class=\"wp-image-384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY3.jpg 384w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY3-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><figcaption>Balloon Girl (2002)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY4.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"385\" data-link=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=385\" class=\"wp-image-385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY4.jpg 384w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY4-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><figcaption>Rage, Flower Thrower (2003)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY11.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"386\" data-link=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=386\" class=\"wp-image-386\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY11.jpg 512w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY11-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/nether-netherland.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/BANKSY11-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption>Home Sweet Home<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Rage, Flower Thrower (2003), was a piece originally seen in Jerusalem, and was seen by many to be a symbol of peace and hope in an area riddled with destruction.
