Biography - Mr Brainwash (1966):

For over a decade, Thierry Guetta, under his pseudonym Mr Brainwash, has pushed the boundaries of contemporary art. The orchestrated collision of street art and pop art has been his balancing act. The turning point for Mr Brainwash was his revolutionary images from the widely acclaimed documentary, Exit Through the Gift Shop. This Oscar-nominated film.
Demonstrate the evolution of the street art movement with Mr Brainwash, who, alongside Banksy, has introduced art to the general public. Navigating between the worlds of cinema, celebrity culture, music, and sports, Mr Brainwash has cemented his legacy in the art world.

From his emergence, Mr. Brainwash has shaken up the art world with his innovative and bold style. He uses elements from the past of pop art and the raw components of his street art beginnings to create exhibitions and collaborations that are larger than life. Mr. Brainwash's imaginative construction of gallery exhibitions and art shows around the world continues to attract the attention of critics and celebrities.

Mr. Brainwash has designed album covers for Madonna, Rick Ross, and KYGO. His works have been featured in films and television productions such as Molly’s Game, Billions, Shameless, and The Kardashians. Mr. Brainwash's talents are showcased through creative partnerships with leading brands like Hublot, Coca-Cola, and Marvel Comics creator Stan Lee. He has also collaborated with world-renowned footballer Pelé, who joined the artist to splash paint on some artworks.

Mr Brainwash's passion extends to his commitment to giving back to the community. He continues to donate artworks to support the Los Angeles LGBT Center, created commemorative murals for September 11 to honor the victims, and partnered with Product RED to raise awareness about AIDS. Mr Brainwash also provides annual support to organizations such as the Prince’s Trust to benefit vulnerable youth. He met former First Lady Michelle Obama to support her organization, 'Let Girls Learn,' which helps adolescent girls attend and complete school.

He also had the honor of meeting privately with Pope Francis in Rome to raise funds for Scholas, the pope's personal foundation dedicated to serving the youth of the world.

On December 18, 2022, Thierry Guetta inaugurated the Mr Brainwash Art Museum, with the current exhibition Enter Through the Museum, a nod to Exit Through the Gift Shop, and the world's first contemporary art museum created and led by a living artist. As a tireless creator and analyst-catalyst of pop culture, Mr. Brainwash sees the museum as an artistic playground for all ages, a new platform to express uplifting messages that bring hope, positivity, and beauty to the Beverly Hills community, Angelenos, and visitors from around the world.
