Description from the seller

ONE-OF-A-KIND WORK BY MR BRAINWASH!

**** A Piece of a Legend ****

Signed by the artist. Delivered with the artist's certificate of authenticity (shipped separately for security reasons).
This is a unique piece, as confirmed by the 1/1 on the back of the painting.

Work on paper (63.5 x 63.5 cm) sold framed in a black wooden frame of baroque type, ready to hang.
Dimensions with frame: 77 x 77 cm, depth 4 cm.

This recent creation sits within the heritage of Pop Art and street art.
The iconic face of Marilyn Monroe unfolds through a complex overlay play. The portrait seems to recombine like a giant puzzle.
Blue and yellow pieces float around the face, breaking the image's linearity.
The background is composed of newspaper fragments and urban textures.
The aesthetic recalls Warhol's works while adding a contemporary, fragmented dimension.
The contrast between flat color fields and newspaper articles creates a rhythmic visual dialogue. The blue gaze and red lips draw attention to the center of this organized chaos.
The whole piece plays on celebrity and the deconstruction of the media image.

The artist Mr. Brainwash, also known as Thierry Guetta, is influenced by the work of many artists, including Charlie Chaplin. Mr. Brainwash is famous for his urban pop art style, blending elements of street art, pop art and contemporary art. He often uses popular icons and cultural symbols to create visually striking and provocative works.

Mr. Brainwash's works are smart investments, see article:
