Mr. Brainwash Getting Up - But Is It Him?


New Mr. Brainwash posters have been going up in Los Angeles, but is it Mr. Brainwash putting these up?

We know that Mr. Brainwash has a team that works with them, we are not asking if someone on his team put these up, we are wondering if these new pieces are from the MBW camp at all?

There are a few reasons why it seems suspicious. First of all, the material of the posters themselves. These are movie posters. They are printed in full color and have a gloss effect, which makes it hard for the glue to bond with and is essentially poor material for getting up on the streets. Back when Mr. Brainwash was getting up in LA, his pieces were clearly street oriented, so this doesn't make sense.

And secondly, street art seems to be like a recovering addict. You don't pick up taking a few nervous hits off the pipe, when you take a break you pick back up where you left off. And it doesn't make sense that after going big and smashing the city MBW would simply places a few measly posters around town.

So, someone's getting up with Mr. Brainwash posters, but is it Mr. Brainwash?
