Is Banksy Brainwashed or Vice Versa

Banksy or Mr. Brainwash

Let us start with Banksy, seeing as he was first.  To start: to be a Banksy-know-it-all it is best to check out his website to see a good sampling of his art and/or creep on his story on wikipedia.



Then you can look at a bizarre film where Banksy joins socialites and other characters for dinner which you can watch on hulu.

Now where they meet....

Banksy clearly sees Mr. Brainwash as a fraud and shows it in the film Exit Through the Gift Shop which starts with the crazy Mr. Brainwash, before he gives himself that name, simply filming street artists for a nonexistent documentary (which is how they meet).  Then he decides to create his own work and Banksy shows us how Mr. Brainwash goes about it all wrong.

NOW (the reason I'm writing this post) you can watch A Day in the Life of Mr. Brainwash (and see his crazy in all of its glory).  Morgan Spurlock's (think Supersize Me) new show on Hulu focuses on one day of interesting people's lives such as Misty Copeland, will.i.am, Girl Talk, and now Mr. Brainwash, check it out here!

And finally to see Mr. Brainwash's "work" (he hires people to do it for him) go see his website here.
