I went to the opening of the ‘Mr Brainwash Art Museum’ in Beverly Hills today. It’s an ongoing exhibit- I suspect it will be there for a few months. If you have been to a Brainwash show before, you know what to expect.

There were some fun interactive pieces- made for people to post on Instagram.
My favorite was a life size replica of Van Gogh’s Bedroom.

There were 3 floors of art. Most of the pieces in this show were vandalized oil paintings. Although it looks as if the oil paintings aren’t really oil paintings. They are printed on to canvas and someone has just painted on top of those. They are exactly what you would expect of a Mr Brainwash art show.

It was a fun little walk through. I wasn’t sure if any of the pieces were for sale. Great way to kill 45 minutes.

I hadn’t seen any of these paintings before but at the same time— I have seen all these paintings 100 times before. Does that make sense?

Mr Brainwash was there walking around in good spirits. He was taking pictures with anyone who asked. A sign at the entrance said this show was always evolving he will probably add more pieces throughout the duration.

Took my Brother yesterday and this was an awesome exhibit. Even the crustiest naysayers would have to crack a smile at a lot of the pieces. Thierry was very generous with his time in taking selfies and signing shoes, shirts, babies etc. They let me tag the walls in a couple different rooms. He told us it was a soft opening so we could go wherever and take as many pics as we wanted. Better than most of the art I saw in Miami a couple weeks ago.

one could argue that Banksy Created mr brainwash and there fore is not a copy

 

Maybe I don't get out much, and maybe it's been done before, but the Hockney pool painted on the patio is very cool. Love the idea and execution.

I would suggest MBW is older than Banksy whoever he is, so he’s bound to have been around longer…. Or maybe, just maybe they’ve been around for exactly the same time cos they are the same person? 😂
