Mr Brainwash 'ICONS REMIX' Show - May 9th, by volvic on May 10, 2010 21:09:51 GMT 1, the fact that his being re sold so quickly already just goes to show the attention span that his collector base has, the hype train has to speed up before it slows down i am afraid.

here is the one off Mr. Brainwash gave to the guy who waited out overnight in the freezing cold to be No. 1 in line! Pretty cool of Mr. Brainwash to give it away for free and the guy was also very happy as he couldn't wipe the smile off his face for the rest of the day!
lucky guy!

only because you think its worth cash. rehashed rehashed rehashed ideas executed by his team of artists, nothing "original" about the work what so ever. its Madonna FFS, I wouldn't want that on my wall.
Especially now that silky only rates him 1 star

Here!
As much as most don't like his art, none can deny that that was a really nice gesture and definitely something he didn't have to do.
He was already giving away free prints and sure that was all the guy was wanting.
Anyone hearing this will think it a really nice thing to do
+1 for MBW from me

Mr Brainwash 'ICONS REMIX' Show - May 9th, by Ruggs on May 11, 2010 13:27:18 GMT 1, I read all MBW threads with great interest. I'm not a fan, I don't generally contribute and I don't have any of his prints either, but i've seen both US show's on his flickr site and I have to say I think it all looks pretty cool. I actually can't wait to see this guys show if, and when, it hits these shores. He also sounds like a very decent and approachable chap as well. I think the day may come when I might have to invest in one or two pieces. Really like that Madonna piece the guy got as a freebie.

Yeah, a UK show on this scale would be interesting. I'm not totally sure how it would go down over here  I'm sure it would be popular on some levels, but maybe cant be taken too seriously? I would say enjoy it for what it is and don't ask too many question about the depth of the work. Would be fun for sure!

I AM HAPPY THAT THIS IS THE DIRECTION THAT 'URBAN ART' IS GOING IN, AS IT'S A TERRIBLE TERM THAT WAS APPROPRIATED BY AN AUCTION HOUSE TO PACKAGE UP PRODUCT TO SELL TO AN AUDIENCE UNCOMFORTABLE OF ANYTHING THAT DIDN'T SIT IN A BOX.
AS FOR STREET INFLUENCED ART, THEN THIS IS ANYTHING BUT THE DIRECTION IT IS HEADING IN.

Mr Brainwash 'ICONS REMIX' Show - May 9th, by volvic on May 11, 2010 20:20:42 GMT 1, The next time mr brainwash has a show people are going to que earlier and earlier in the hope of another free gift like that. Which in return is free pr for him all for the cost of giving away one of his originals which come on lets be honest are hardly labor and time intensive. Sure its a nice thing to do if you got the piece but for him its a cheap and effective way of fueling the fire. Although it probably cost him all of 100k to buy his own painting back at auction.
