It's a Beautiful Life - Mr Brainwash

Thierry Guetta aka Mr Brainwash launched his first solo UK show @ the Old Sorting Office. 
A Film maker and pop Artist.  http://www.mrbrainwash.com/
A Free Exhibition in which he filled a huge space with giant installations, murals, paintings and lots more.  As I entered the space I received a free spray can that was personalised with Mr Brainwash. There were also free postcards and posters available too collect. I was lucky enough on the day to also meet the artist himself and got him to sign one of my postcards and get a great picture with my friend Lisa. 

His work has received worldwide recognition with Banksy's Oscar nominated film, Exit Through the Gift Shop. The French shopkeeper and film marker attempts to befriend Banksy and other street artists to create a documentary that shows an insight into street art. I film to watch if you love street art, highly recommend.
