The latest officially confirmed Banksy artwork, named Mobile Lovers, featuring a man and a woman embraced and looking at their mobile phones, sprayed onto a black wooden board is displayed inside the Broad Plain & Riverside Youth Project in Bristol, England. The artwork, which comes days after a piece depicting three 1950s-style agents listening in on conversations in a telephone box appeared in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, was originally attached to a blocked off doorway on Clement Street, in the underground guerrilla street artist's hometown of Bristol. However, it was moved yesterday by members of the financially stricken youth club, who hope to auction the artwork to help raise funds for their struggling centre.
