Palestinian artist Shadi Alzaqzouq was kicked out and his artwork removed from an art show after he staged an anti-Israel protest organised by famous graffiti artist and Palestine supporter Banksy.

An avant-guard Palestinian artist whose art was being displayed in pseudonymous British graffiti artist Banksy’s “Dismaland”, was told his art would be removed after he staged a protest against Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip.

Shadi Alzaqzouq was booted out of the satirical take on Disney’s theme parks on Sunday, after he discovered that organisers had not informed him that Israeli artists were taking part in the show, set up by the allegedly pro-Palestinian Banksy.

In August 2005, Banksy painted nine graffiti pieces on the Israeli West Bank barrier, including an image of a ladder going up and over the wall and an image of children, digging a hole through the wall.
