Mr. BRAINWASH aka THIERRY GUETTA (French, 1966) METRO POLISA Screenprint on paper Signed vertically in pencil upper left "Mr. Brainwash" Numbered in pencil lower right "95/125" 46 by 25 1/8 inches Mr. Brainwash appropriates images from a wide range of sources, from art history to entertainment and consumer culture, subverting their typical meanings and associations through his alterations and juxtapositions.Sitting in the back seat of the police vehicle is hardly viewable Mona Lisa which may be a commentary on the metaphorical arrest of fine art. On the one hand, Mr. Brainwash could be questioning the artistic merit of street art when compared to fine art, or poking fun at fine arts' inability to keep up - an arrest - against Street and Urban Art. $1,000-1,500 Categories: Mr. Brainwash
