Mr. Brainwash- Life is Beautiful- Street Artist in Los ...

[3Guys1Board]

@wretchedspawn1000 so MWB is not the only artist to do that Andy Warhol also paid people and they still call him a true artist...

[wretchedspawn1000]

I Really don't know about this guy, its what he loves to do?? hire fucken artists to do work he can't do. He fukken fell off a ladder and couldn't do shit. Yes he's the first to have no style while having style. possible the best lamest artist

[isaactrujillo]

every one is so oblivious to his out at what he does, Banksy even said "He broke the rules to become a true artist, but now that I say that, art does not have any rules." sure he is a fake and copies other artist, but he was the first to do so.

[TheMrSkittleism]

As a artist I am not so happy about this sweat shop of a genre artist that the mainstream has fallen in love with. People that support Him really don't get it and I am here asking my self now who will save the romance...

[obesityofego]

life was art, now art is dead.

[Tehllamaful]

Fuck mbw. He the milli vanilli of artists.

[CBlanchProduction]

to be a true artist, you need artistic talent and creativity. MBW doesnt have artistic talent, all of his images are computer generated, and he doesnt even create them he hires people to do it. I will say he is a little creative, but most of his work is just a copy of other pop artists or mindless spray painting onto printed pictures.

[08CJ11]

hes an idiot, he loves himself

[LauraNoir]

He isn't a bastard...HE'S A GENIOUSSS!!!

[Vanessa2001Matiss]

Street art in a museum? blagh get outta here..

[troonorth]

Ya, this guy gets as much love and hate as Yoko Ono...Art for the Win

[ilbrevigliero]

maybe he'snt an artist, but he'd WON.

haters gonna hate...

[gearguy981]

stop hating on him

[RalphyPlague]

he should sitck to videowork!!

[swahra1]

He is not an artist.

[AnonymouSkill1]

Hoaxs or not, this guy isnt really doing it for inspiration more of fame just like what had Fairey said about Mr.Brainwash, i mean i bet this guys rarely knows about half the people he puts on his arts kinda sad when you put fame before creativity

[roterstern972]

why you put !!!!STREETART!!! in a museum

[9Skateboard7]

Its nice that some old ass can use photo shop -_-"

[Nitemare54231]

@9Skateboard7 no, he hires people to do it for him lol

[cannuck227]

the best part is he doesn't make any of it it is produced on a commercial scale

[monzterrr]

America likes to get brainwashed, be it TV or Art....

[2ndXary]

i like the people who over analyze banksy's work and create an idea in their head that's full of shit.

[Jaoric]

Funny the way everyone's arguing on youtube and places for or against a guy that doesn't actually exist =)

[801Muse]

banksy.....you've created a monster

[GameGerds]

He will ruin graffiti...

[schooloffeet]

Im praying that one day it'll come out that brainwash was actaully banksy all along, that would make the prank fuckin perfect

[jamnic89]

Mr. Brainwash is a fictional character :P

[weatherkop]

Some people cant comprehend the fact that he isnt really an artist is what makes him an artist, the fact that his art is not art makes it art. this concept was started in the 60s by warhol. it is just commercial perversion that says a lot about humans no matter what our reaction is to it

[Sdub3000]

MR. BRAINWASH IS A FUCKING POSER ASS BITCH RIDING ON THE COAT TAILS OF REAL ARTISTS.

Even his icon is done by another artist, seriously he contracted his image out and all he did was paste it- thats the definition of a fucking toy. He did do a good job however when picking artist to do his work and being the one who is going to ruin and bastardize street/urban art for this and other generations to come. NICE WORK DR. DUESCHE-WASH YA BITCH.

[ArrogantAlec]

Street art is all about the money nowadays. Graffiti-streetart

[THEdestroyedONE]

@ArrogantAlec Art is art the street is far more meaningful, if the message is the same it can't be bad. Right?

I agree also ,just sayin'.

[mexer]

Life is beautiful ,i brainwashed people into believing im a real artist! i have everyone else do my art then i take the credit for it.You fuckin fools keep paying me bitches!

[graffboy6]

hate that guy he just skipped the whole process of making ur name a legend. stole every thig from banksy and hes way to cocky

[abbavata]

douchebag

[Mad99Hammer]

I wonder if thierry realizes that he is nothing more than a complete joke. his "art" is nothing more than shittier versions of actually good art. i almost feel bad for the guy...

[Mad99Hammer]

I wonder if thierry realizes that he is nothing more than a complete joke. his "art" is nothing more than shittier versions of actually good art. i almost feel bad for the guy...

[LilRedRidinHoodz]

Dude, yes Brainwash takes street art indoors, but it's not the first time. Banksy has had artshows too, lots of people collect his work for indoors. Brainwash is just isnt that original in his work. None the less good ideas.

[faisu82]

Besides the fact that street art HAS indeed become a sub-market within the so-called Artworld, Mr Brainwash - doesn't matter if he's Banksy's living artwork himself or just a smart ass - is an emblematic example of how little serious and trustworthy Art has become. I would suggest: let's stop speaking about Art, for it has become a very dangerous term. Every human activity that gets in touch with it, or embraced by it, is systematically misused and thereby sterilized in its political potential.

[everelusive9]

@BastuBasti:

Mr Brainwash is not ruining street art by bringing it into museums. Tons of "real" street artists already did that long before MBW. MBW is just an unknowing parody of how so many actual street artists have sold their soul to the monetary system.

[TheseOpenRoads]

The fact is that he may be bringing street art from the streets to the gallery but shouldn't we all be proud that this art form is being recognized as REAL art after years of being seen as vandals, punks and assholes? Personally I'm very happy to see someone who put in their time and has been around a long time (someone like Kaws) to be seen in art galleries around the world

[greyballs]

joker!!

[psychedelnick1]

I like all of "his" stuff, it's all Banksy, but it's good work. I just hate all the art snobs who were hating on the stuff last week and are now all into it, just because it was promoted by real street artist who made their way into gallery shows. But we all know, street art that is in a gallery show ceases to be street art, it becomes Gallery Art.

[chris5mob5]

some people are saying that harmony corine is involved?

[alanangeles91]

lol he is not an artist

[Hell0rHighwater]

mr.brainwash!!!!

suck a dick wit yo fake ass not putting in work for yourself!

but i like the michael jackson monroe but still suck a dick!

[esleone1]

It's hard to say if this is a prank or not. I wish it was. If we will see Mr.Brainwash in two years time, doing his stuff, we will know it wasn't a prank... I don't know why, but it seemed as Banksy made his documentary to apologize for creating MBW and changing street art into mainstream.

[TheeCoolOne]

@esleone1

he wouldn't of released the movie if he was ashamed of mbw. he paid for mbw's gallery and set up the movie, remember he was the director. it's a prank on the art community. banksy is a millionaire he wanted to do the ultimate prank.

[GigabyteX4]

when you think about it, he really has brainwashed all these people....

[MrSmartComment]

justin bieber of graffiti

[ZooKing13]

MBW IS A JOKE! THATS NOT EVEN HIS ART HE JUST HAS THE IDEA AND LEST PEOPLE DO THE WORK FOR HIM

[AndyInKent]

HAHAHAAHA, and all them mugs who spend loads of money buying MBW's "ART", he is nothing but a fake! Just goes to show how much of a mug the people with money are!

Most of his stuff isnt even made by him, other people create it LMFAO you mugs!

[brydon10]

Mr. Brainwash isn't real, Banksy created the idea, I mean look at the movie, Exit through the gift shop, it was DIRECTED BY BANKSY, it is Banksy's movie. Everything about the movie was created by Banksy.

[Tortalone]

@brydon10 thats what they say.

[andyrobertson1212]

to anyone who thinks mr brainwash is banksy your a retard banksy has had many art shows ... just watch exit threw the gift shop!! he just ripped banksy off

[lewish611]

@andyrobertson1212 i know! he just took banksys ideas and made a load of money from it.. hes not even talented

[andyrobertson1212]

@lewish611 well his work is ok but he has other people do it for him he has illistrators and graphic designers and printers and people working photoshop for hijm

[omglightsdotcom]

@andyrobertson1212 lol you fail.

[lukasgillis]

Lol mbw is just an annagram for BMW :D

[Lmpfapo1]

Banksy's greatest prank.

[droan999]

@Lmpfapo1 ilike your comment, i was reading that it might have been a hoax as well, but in what fashion?? did basky do the work, and then let mbw, take credit in some weird way??? just saw the movie last night. if you have any info or know of a good site would be much appreciated

[sennerd]

wannabe banksy?

[cacaorocks]

is this banksy?

[valcomatthew]

@cacaorocks i should slap u in the face!!!!

this mbw (mr.brain wash)

and banksy is anonymous

[GhidoraSkate]

This guy is obviously banksy and the film is just another one of his pranks.

[BastuBasti]

mr. brainwash is a fuckin bastard.

he is the one who is going to ruin streetart and bring it into the museums.

that is not what streetart is for.

[LMB9888]

@BastuBasti Bansky had a museum show months before Mr. Brainwash did.

[edwardo119]

@BastuBasti hes not real retard, he is a character created by banksy to show retards like you exactly what your saying, street art is ruined by people like this.

[edwardo119]

its called a mocumentary for all ye spastics.

[thedirtys2006]

people hav to live. if u can take a hobby n turn it into a career it's smart marketing. if u grew up when hip hop and punk rock started in the late 70's / early 80's u wuld know graffiti already hit the art gallery scene. Mr Brainwash should move overseas because the moron's who bought into the hype about this man really are ignorant souls, along w 99% of all people who don't know shit about street art. like yuppies who buy this crap. (not a comment against u, this film pissd me off)

[rainbowstarfield]

@BastuBasti You are wrong. ART IS FREE. JUST BECAUSE PEOPLE PAY HIM DONT MAKE HIM BAD FOO

[rainbowstarfield]

@BastuBasti besides wtf difference does it make street or indoors. man AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[HaloHamstur]

@BastuBasti Its art no matter what why dont we just make art and not give a shit where it is

[Sdub3000]

@BastuBasti - I totaly fucking agree, when I saw that movie at first it was cool and I was into it but by the end when I saw how this bastard bastardized the art I was fucking angry, WHAT A FUCKING POSER DUESCHE, DICKY DORK DONUT PUNCHER!!!

[LUXZ0R]

You guys do realize that Mr. Brainwash IS Banksy. Mr. Brainwash is all just a hoax created by Banksy to poke fun at artists who do rip off other peoples work. All of Mr. Brainwashes art is to show how street art is becoming mainstream and turning into a form of museum/gallery art and how artists are using their art for profit. Never take any part of Mr.Brainwash serious.

[MrShiftowns]

@LUXZ0R proof?

[rosso1000]

on ebay uk there is some amazing art by MR.COLAPOP...reallly cool...

[zentone12]

MBW is a fucking joke he fucking jacked obey and banskys art. He doesn't even make his own artwork he hires people to make it for him. All he does is just put it up and says it's his.

[GlennHoughton]

ahh please check out Blek Le Rat's art! Banksy ripped Blek. Brainwash ripped Banksy. big fucking deal. art rips other art.

[bundle12]

@GlennHoughton Banksy didn't exactly rip of Blek., he adapted his methods to convey his own ideas. He also HAND MADE his own works (with the help of some others on certain occasions). Brainwash has ripped other artists work, done nothing new with it, doesn't convey any of his own ideas or messages AND THEN doesn't even produce his own works, he just gets others to do it.

Art doesn't rip other art. Art BUILDS on other art.

[Dookie2121]

This guy has single handed raped street art. What a piece of shit.

[DHomme]

Outstanding !

All the Best ,

McMurtagh

[poiazoo]

isn't he the guy who filmed the banksy movie?

[EddBall1]

hes a scam! watch the bansky film!

[baddanagebrain]

i saw him and few guys working on an ape holding mcdonalds in LA last year. isn't he banksy??

[artbin79]

@baddanagebrain NO! he is not bansky.... he ripped off bansky. mr brainwash doesnt really create his own work he hires people to do it.

[wasjunk]

[Spanky7482]
