A look at Banksy's latest work in Liverpool
Street artist Banksy has installed a vandalised sculpture of a priest in a gallery in Liverpool.
Cardinal Sin is a bust with its face sawn off and replaced by blank tiles, designed as a response to the child abuse scandal in the Catholic church.
In a statement, Banksy said: "I'm never sure who deserves to be put on a pedestal or crushed under one."
Reyahn King, director of the Walker Gallery, tells the BBC's Colin Paterson why Banksy's latest work has ended up in Liverpool.
Reyahn King, director of art galleries at National Museums Liverpool said: "We are thrilled to display the work of this major contemporary artist. It is a huge coup and we're sure his work will spark a reaction with visitors. Banksy specified that it be shown alongside our period collection and we were very happy to oblige.”
Where is the sculpture?
You can find it on display in Room three, which is one of the 17th-century Old Master galleries. Works in the gallery include large church altarpieces and religious sculptures. You can find out more about the gallery in museums room guide here.
