Surreal artist Banksy has launched his latest art project, The Walled Off Hotel on barrier wall separating the Palestinian territories from Israel and he got some help from Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. The name is a play on the famous five-star luxury hotel, the Waldorf Astoria in New York City.

The entire hotel is a massive art installation with the goal of helping people understand the lives of Palestinians living behind the wall. There is a piano bar in the hotel, which plays itself and every day at 7pm it will showcase a new original piece from Reznor and Ross, titled 'Green Lines' written specifically for this gallery. Reznor shared the track on Youtube:

The official website of The Walled Off Hotel describes the piano as such:

And through it all the piano plays – by itself. Our remote controlled mechanical baby grand has been programmed with a bespoke score of contemporary arrangements, plus every night it will play back a concert recorded exclusively for the hotel. We start our residency programme with 3D who presents the greatest hits of Massive Attack played with three hands. Concerts start every night from 7pm. Upcoming artists include Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, Flea and Hans Zimmer.

If you're in Israel, pop in and let us know how it is.
