[de] Game Changer

Game Changer ist ein Gemälde des britischen Streetart-Künstlers Banksy aus dem Jahr 2020. Es wurde Anfang Mai 2020 im Foyer des Southampton General Hospital – der größten Klinik des National Health Service in der südenglischen Stadt Southampton – aufgehängt und zeigt einen knienden Jungen im Spiel mit einer Puppe in Krankenschwestergestalt, die als neue Superheldin der COVID-19-Pandemie seine fortgeworfenen Comicfiguren ersetzt hat. Die weibliche Puppenfigur trägt Krankenschwestertracht und darauf ein Rotes Kreuz auf ihrer Brust und nimmt mit einer vorausgestrecken Hand die Flugpose von Superman ein. Die zwei Puppen im Papierkorb sind an ihren Kostümen als Batman und Spiderman erkennbar.[1]

[en] Painting for Saints

Painting for Saints or Game Changer is a 2020 painting by Banksy, who donated it to the Southampton General Hospital in Southern England, United Kingdom. The artwork depicts a child playing with a toy nurse, having selected the toy over superheroes Batman and Spider-Man, and was unveiled during the COVID-19 pandemic. The painting is largely monochrome apart from a red cross on the nurse's uniform. It was delivered to the hospital together with a note: "Thanks for all you're doing. I hope this brightens the place up a bit, even if its only black and white".[1] The hospital titled the artwork Painting for Saints, which references "The Saints", a nickname for Southampton F.C.[2] Banksy himself posted the image on his Instagram account with the caption "Game Changer".[3]
