Gareth James, manager of the Glasgow Gallery of Modern Art, said: "Cut & Run has welcomed a new and diverse audience, from primary school pupils to octogenarians, from all areas of society and corners of the globe."Free community tickets and overnight opening hours have extended the museum's reach far beyond our usual scope."
He added: "We expected some resistance but in fact visitors embraced the no phones rule, enjoying the time and space to see the work unhindered."The exhibition will now go on tour, with Banksy asking for suggestions for where it should go next in the world. The work had just been auctioned for £1m, when an alarm went off inside the frame and the picture dropped into a hidden shredder.Other exhibits included the Union flag stab vest worn by Stormzy when he headlined Glastonbury in 2019 and pieces previously only seen in Bethlehem in the West Bank, including a pillow fight between an Israeli soldier and a Palestinian citizen.
