MBW Art Show 2008

After an off-hours attempt and thinking I might have missed the show altogether, I spent my lunch hour in an old CBS studio at Mr. Brainwash’s Life is Beautiful: Art Show 2008. It was a pretty great collection of work, much of it familiar from parking lots, buildings, and electricity boxes around L.A., where we’ve seen his signature work plastered over the last few years. Other material, like the classical paintings with modern elements and the rooms filled with books, were new to me. The life-size Nighthawks diner seems to be in progress, and is already pretty impressive.

The show, which seemed originally scheduled to end while we were in Italy, will be continuing through July, so Aimee and I will be returning at some point later on. Where did he get all those books?
