A collection of more than 70 original works by street artist Banksy will open Thanksgiving weekend on the Las Vegas Strip.

The U.S. debut of “Banksy: Genius or Vandal?” will be on display at Immersion Vegas, on the first floor of Fashion Show mall, through April 5.

The dozens of works from private collectors will include the 700-pound “Stop Esso,” “Rose Trap,” “Heavy Weaponry” and “Holocaust Lipstick.” Limited editions, photos, video installations and a multi-media presentation will be included.

Banksy is internationally known for his witty and ironic takes on politics, war, capitalism and mortality.

Exhibit hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. (final admission at 8 p.m.) Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. (final admission at 6 p.m.) Sunday.
