One of the most beloved pieces and infamous pieces created by Banksy is the Girl with the Red Balloon. The painting is meant to represent the moment that the innocence of childhood is lost. However, you may remember this painting for the stir it caused a Southby's auction wehn the second it sold for $1.4 Million (USD) an alarm sounded triggering a mechanism hidden in the frame to shred the painting. The shredded piece was renamed, Love is in the Bin. Don't feel bad for the person that bought the painting that was then destroyed though. They later sold it for $25.4 million USD!
