Banksy’s roving Ronald McDonald statue and its loyal human shoe-shiner appeared outside the Delancey McDonald’s yesterday evening. Boogie reader Laura from the LES snapped a shot of the fiberglass piece at around 5pm, and it disappeared shortly thereafter.
This mobile artwork began last week, and will visit Five Boroughs franchises each day until tomorrow. It’s part of Banksy’s month-long “Better Out Than In” outdoors takeover exhibit on the streets of New York.
