ICONS show runs February 14th – March 31st, 2010
Los Angeles based French street artist, Mr. Brainwash (aka Thierry Guetta), celebrates his first solo show in New York with ICONS. Mr. Brainwash is the alter-ego of French immigrant Thierry Guetta, who now lives in Los Angeles. His preoccupation with street art and graffiti led him to years filming the people behind the work, and eventually he became an artist too.
This body of work is the result of traveling throughout Europe and the United States as the subject of Banksy's new documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop. This documentary about the process secretly premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January of 2010. It wasn’t listed in the program, but quickly became the hottest ticket at the festival. Featuring famed street artists like Banksy, Ron English, Borf and Shepard Fairey, the viewer is able to watch the famous fiends at work. One of the most memorable scenes is of Banksy installing an inflatable replica of a Guantanamo torture victim right next to a roller coaster in The Happiest Place On Earth — Disneyland.
Being a trusted accomplice of Banksy is no small feat — and accomplice is perhaps a better word than friend, given that Banksy described Guetta as “maybe just someone with mental problems who happened to have a camera.”
Since his entrance onto the contemporary art scene in 2008 with his Los Angles show “Life is Beautiful”, Mr. Brainwash (Guetta) has raised a lot of questions, namely ‘is he for real?’ Guetta began to follow the exploits street artists’ Shepard Fairey and Banksy with a digital video camera, but soon Banksy turned the camera on Guetta, encouraging him to create his own persona, which is the end product of Exit Through the Gift Shop, the documentary being billed as ‘the world’s first street art disaster movie’. Critics and gallerists alike have written him off as a hack, or simply a regurgitation of Banksy and Shepard Fairey’s existing work.
Held in a two story converted gallery space, at 415 West 13th Street, the show features pop portraits, prints, and engaging large scale sculptures. An enormous multi-level space packed with jumbo canvases and installations, including a life-size horse made from tire treads. In the middle of the upper level was a pink-splattered can of paint so big you could hold a party inside it. Combining pop art sensibilities with graffiti culture, Mr. Brainwash’s relentless riffing on celebrity culture is at once familiar and colorful. He recasts Angelina Jolie as Marilyn Monroe, smothers a 7′ can of spray-paint with Louis Vuitton’s famous monogram, and recreates Jimi Hendrix on a canvas covered in crushed records. At the back of the room, almost hidden in the dark, was a classic NYC cab sealed inside life-sized Matchbox packaging.
The feeling of the show? A Warholian art revival with walls filled up with dozens of replicant Madonna images, as in Warhol's Campbell's Soup series, so much so that it could be difficult to say if the whole thing is just a joke or Mr. Brainwash really believes he is 'an original'. To underline his artistic personality, though, all the silkscreens were colored with spray paint or had some additional details.
Regardless of sentiment, Guetta’s work draws a crowd. Without endorsing or refuting his credibility as an artist, Brainwash certainly fulfilled the exhibitions’ namesake. Under his nom de guerre, Guetta created or reproduced images that are easily identifiable; the subjects are no longer individuals, but rather logos in our collective cultural memory.

Icons Remix, was opened on Mother's Day 2010 by the controversial Mr. Brainwash. Mr. Brainwash reopened the original massively hyped pop art exhibition, Icons, in a 15,000 square foot space at 415 West 13th Street. Mr. Brainwash (MBW), a pseudonym for Thierry Guetta, was supposedly a French documentarian and videographer turned street and pop artist, whose story is told through Banksy's 2010 film, Exit Through the Gift Shop.
Anti-Jewish racist / genocidal graffiti (“Free Palestine”) sprayed on “Untitled (Brainwash)” at Washington, DC’s Union Market now has the added truthified statement “From Hamas”
In May and June, 2021, several Washington, DC landmarks and neighborhoods experienced the presence of spray-painted anti-Jewish racist messages similar to this.
“It is obvious to any honest observer that Hamas is not interested in protecting our families, expanding economic opportunity, or otherwise improving life for Palestinians. For those of us who care about peace and progress, it is long past time for us to separate ourselves from Hamas.” - Bassam Eid, a Palestinian living in Israel who has an extensive career as a Palestinian human rights activist. His initial focus was on human rights violations committed by Israeli armed forces, but for many years has broadened his research to include human rights violations committed by the Palestinian Authority (PA), and the Palestinian armed forces on their own people.

This is the only way to clear your head of thoughts and stresses. It's also pretty good for blocking out the sounds of the garageband at their weekly jam session.

Wow, this looks WAY more glamorous than I had thought it would (when I'm phoneblogging, y'all get to see the photos on the web before than I do). I was out with friends, leather-shopping for Folsom in SoMa, and none of the places had bathrooms, so I walked back to the Brainwash Cafe, a known site of toilet-ry. Notice the quotes on the wall tiles.

Mr. Brainwash Art Museum opened in December 2022 in Beverly Hills and is dedicated to the work of French-born, Los Angeles–based street artist Thierry Guetta, known professionally as Mr. Brainwash. Located in the former Paley Center for Media building at 465 North Beverly Drive, designed by Richard Meier, the museum has been transformed into a large-scale, immersive exhibition space presenting graffiti-inflected paintings, pop-culture mashups, oversized sculptures, neon text, and murals from the artist first introduced to a wider audience through Banksy’s 2010 documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop.

If you like my work you can paypal me: vytautas.gm@gmail.com So you wanna know how horror movies brainwashes you? 1. Discourages you to stay in nature by associating good things (nature, relax) with creepy things (monsters, murders). In many horror movies at first shown beautiful nature, wilderness, and after that you always see a little clue about horrible things to come out. In that way you will “by surprise” begin to think: I better stay at home Life in city is safer I better go to shopping mall on weekend instead of going to hike in the forest If something happens while i will be in the forest, i will have to wait long time when help will comes to me. I’ll better swim in the pool instead of the lake. And so on... This is not by the chance, because the elite has an Agenda 21 or Agenda 2030, and they need you to move to the megacities, and stay out of the nature, that way you are more controllable. Wanna live in nature and enjoy fresh air? No no no, go to the city and fight for survival with other cattle like you... 2. Makes you think that good guys deserved to be chopped by disfigured human flesh eating monsters, because good guys acts stupidly in movies. When good guys understands that they are in danger, they “by surprise” decides to split up and that is very very stupid decision. So the viewer have less empathy for these stupid good guys. And in some horror movies good guys even fights between each other when big danger is coming. What can be more stupid than this. So your empathy to good guys decreases again. They even goes in bad guys home unwelcomed when it’s no one at home. So you start thinking that good guys are deserved their destiny, don’t you? Yes that’s what elite wants you to think. 3. The good guys. The good guys in horror movies are usually from middle or lower than middle class. Usually heterosexual white muscular men doesn’t survive (but if he is a doctor or some journalist and that means he is a higher than middle class, so that way he survives). This way elite shows you that they don’t want competition. They lets to live weaker elements of society. And these weaker elements usually makes no problems to the elite and their plans. 4. The bad guys. In movie Wrong turn (2003) the bad guys are disfigured offspring of incest families. And incest is popular in elite families. So the disfigured ones are elite. And elite always survives in horror movies. No matter what- at the end after credits we see it. All these krugers mugers always survives. But if the bad guys are just simply humans lower than middle class they are usually killed by the good guys. 5. The police. In action movies usually the policemen are heroes and they survives and defeat bad guys. But in horror movies policemen are usually killed by the krugers mugers. This way elite shows that police has no power over them. 6. Other characters. For example nearby gas station operators, usually work with bad guys. And the gas station operators mission is to be a warning for good guys not to go into the forest or where the danger is. But this warning is very soft and not clear so the good guys always ignores that. Why the bad guys needs to warn good guys- answer is simple to avoid bad karma for killing good guys. In conclusion Horror movies discourages you to stay in nature Makes good guys look dumb and feel no empathy about their pain and deaths Makes bad guys look not so bad and having their own rules in avoiding bad karma Police has no power over bad elite guys Elite bad guys always survives White muscular men never survives, except they are higher than middle class, meaning they are elites themselves Screenshots used from movies: Wrong Turn (2003), Cabin in The Woods (2012), The Recall (2017), He's Out There (2018).

Mr. Brainwash is the nom-de-paintbrush of French artist Thierry Guetta. In 2013, he was commissioned by Menin Hotels to paint scenes inside their Gale Hotel property in Miami Beach, as well as the large outside work on the hotel.
Born in 1966 in the Île-de-France, Thierry Guetta now resides in Los Angeles. His style emulated that of Banksy, and some of his street art has been mistaken for the publicity-shy English muralist - much to the delight of Mr.Brainwash, who is no shrinking violet.
This black Plasmatics 2-sided black tee shirt celebrates the song 'Brainwashed' from their album, 'Coup d'Etat.' Plasmatics is printed on front in red with white outline. Wendy Williams is featured in a brilliant red circle, holding up the name of the band. 'The Brainwashed Do Not Know They Are Brainwashed' is printed backwards underneath the circle. The back of the shirt features the album 'Coup d'Etat' with the name of the album printed in red above descriptive artwork. 'Revolutionary Rock 'N' Roll' is printed in white below. The Plasmatics were an American punk band formed by Yale University art school graduate Rod Swenson with Wendy O. Williams. The band was a controversial group known for wild live shows that broke countless taboos. The Plasmatics' career spanned five studio albums, and multiple EPs. Celebrate the great music of Plasmatics with this unique shirt.
"Made famous by the film Exit Through the Gift Shop as legendary street-artist Banksy’s co-conspirator, Thierry Guetta, a.k.a. Mr. Brainwash, has continued to produce provocative and playful pop art. His work hungrily appropriates contemporary visual-art masters and cheekily tweaks the nose of gallery-based convention."
I wanna be a celebrity
So you will be obsessed with me
You'll sweat my style, want my man
Take my picture whenever you can
I'm gonna get me a famous face
And I'm gonna do whatever it takes
Botox, collagen, plastic surgery
Lose more weight then everyone will love me
Brainwashed
Why would I want to be
Anyone else but me
Not everyone I see
In a magazine
We should think differently
Find our own identity
And maybe then you'll be
In a magazine
Flash take my picture
Flash it's gonna hit ya
Flash take my picture
I wanna be a celebrity
And everyone will be so jealous of me
Rich, skinny, famous, pretty
But just in case I still feel empty
I'll just buy some self esteem
But I can't find it in a magazine
So maybe I'll just watch TV
It's easier than looking inside of me
Brainwashed
Don't get brainwashed by TV
Or every issue of US Weekly
What they wear and what they say
Is not the highlight of the day
Together our society
Should focus on reality
Find your own identity
The world famous graffiti writer Cope 2 did this collaboration with Mr. Brainwash on MBW's studio front wall. Cope spray painted his famoud bubble letters while Mr. Brainwash added his touch using a large wheat pasted image with paint in their message. All that is left now is the boys spraying.

This vandalized canvas is a parody of Hans Hofmann’s 1966 abstract expressionist painting, The Golden Wall, which utilizes his "push-and-pull" theory to create a dynamic sense of space and movement using color and shape. Mr. Brainwash has turned the abstract color fields into a court for the very first video game, Pong.
Mr. Brainwash Art Museum opened in December 2022 in Beverly Hills and is dedicated to the work of French-born, Los Angeles–based street artist Thierry Guetta, known professionally as Mr. Brainwash. Located in the former Paley Center for Media building at 465 North Beverly Drive, designed by Richard Meier, the museum has been transformed into a large-scale, immersive exhibition space presenting graffiti-inflected paintings, pop-culture mashups, oversized sculptures, neon text, and murals from the artist first introduced to a wider audience through Banksy’s 2010 documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop.
Mr. Brainwash ("MBW") is a pseudonym for Thierry Guetta, a supposed French videographer, street artist and pop artist who is purported to be living in Los Angeles.
A brief narrative of Guetta's personal history, as well as the story of his introduction to the world of street art, are told in the 2010 film Exit Through The Gift Shop, which claims to include original footage of street artists at work, shot by Guetta over a period of eight years.
The uniformly subversive artwork attributed to Guetta strongly emulates the styles and artistic concepts of other well-known street artists including Banksy and Shepard Fairey, both of whom supposedly collaborated with Guetta on Exit Through the Gift Shop. Like Banksy, Guetta employs famous and historic images, many of which are protected by copyright, and amends the originals in slight or significant ways to achieve an ironic and often politically or socially biting effect. However, while Banksy often transfers such images to other media, Guetta states in the film that his work largely consists of simply "scanning and photoshopping".
Other works attributed to Guetta also mimic pop artist Andy Warhol's iconic Campbell's Soup cans; in Exit Through the Gift Shop
Guetta's first show Life is Beautiful opened in Los Angeles June 18, 2008. The Mondriart Series was released in 2009 by the artist and features 7 different color options. In 2009, Guetta created the cover art for Madonna's Celebration album and on February 14, 2010, his second show ICONS opened in New York City.

Icons Remix, was opened on Mother's Day 2010 by the controversial Mr. Brainwash. Mr. Brainwash reopened the original massively hyped pop art exhibition, Icons, in a 15,000 square foot space at 415 West 13th Street. Mr. Brainwash (MBW), a pseudonym for Thierry Guetta, was supposedly a French documentarian and videographer turned street and pop artist, whose story is told through Banksy's 2010 film, Exit Through the Gift Shop.
