Mr . Brainwash
Guetta
and was born in France, 1966 and has become one of America’s most popular
street artists. Mr. Brainwash is an artist who creates interesting pieces of
art on the walls of the streets from Los Angeles to Paris. By using his spray-painted
stencils and posters which have inspired him to create his art piece along the
streets.
In
June 2008 Mr Brainwash made his art show called ‘Life is Beautiful’ which had
creative pieces of work such as a pyramid made from 20,000 books, many visitors
were attracted to his work. In the year 2009, Madonna the famous singer had
asked from him to design the cover of her greatest hits.
Mr.
Brainwashes work is all mainly about pop art and he has been inspired by the
other artists such as the famous artist Banksy.
New
Black: what were your inspirations for the show?
Mr.Brainwash:
All of the artists I’ve seen inspire me. Banksy put me in the paper and said to
me “you’ll do a show in June” He brought me out of the box
Know
that nothing is impossible, if you really want to do something. You really have
to want to do it. You think you see from
your eyes but you really see from your heart. That’s why Life Is Beautiful.
This
is an interview that Mr. Brainwash had and by what he says, his work is about
pop art but also inspirations from other artists, mainly from Banksy.
My
favorite piece of art done my Mr. Brainwash is the piece of a monkey sitting on
a coca cola box and is using a spray can and has spelt out ‘Follow your
dreams’. The reason for why I like this piece of art by Mr. Brainwash is
because its not only strange but I like the colors that he has used in the
background, it looks all messy as if it was a wall full of just paint and spray
can but, if you closer at it you can see pictures in the background such as the
Madonna face, spray can and the small letter ‘P’ in the background. I also like
the phrase that he has used which is ‘Follow your dreams’
Mr.
Brainwash’s work is strange in a way because of the different objects he uses
and the wide range of different bold color. His work is very creative and some
are unrealistic such as the monkey sitting on a coca cola can spraying out the
words. He has used his imagination and
has created strange yet beautiful pieces of work, which the famous artist
Banksy has inspired him.
