Mr Brainwash
Thierry Guetta, best known by his moniker Mr. Brainwash, is a French-born Los Angeles-based street artist. According to the 2010 Banksy-directed film '' Exit Through the Gift Shop'', Guetta was a proprietor of a used clothing store, and amateur videographer who was first introduced to street art by his cousin, the street artist Invader, and who filmed street artists through the 2000s and became an artist in his own right in a matter of weeks after an off-hand suggestion from Banksy. A number of critics have observed that his works strongly emulate the styles and concepts of Banksy, and have speculated that Guetta is an elaborate prank staged by Banksy, who may have created the works himself. Banksy insists on his official website, however, that ''Exit Through the Gift Shop'' is authentic and that Guetta is not part of a prank. His work sold for five-figure sums at his self-financed debut exhibit ''Life Is Beautiful'', due, it is thought, to a mixture of an overheated and hyped ...
