If you need any reason to drop the mid work week blues and are in Los Angeles, change up the go-home-and-watch-whatever’s-on-WB routine by heading out on Wednesday night to check out French street artist and moviemaker Mr. Brainwash’s premiere Life Is Beautiful show at the old CBS studios on Sunset Boulevard, which will open its doors under the support of Swindle Magazine. The story of Mr. Brainwash goes that he was filming a doc about street artists in California but ended up exchanging the camera for spray paint, coming into full effect with a style that purposely regurgitates iconography into irreverent images. While the promise of a signed, hand-done print for the first 200 attendees is a great incentive, equally so is an installation made from 100,000 shoes and the presence of painter Edward Hopper’s super-famous Nighthawks in life-size form. Sounds like a good reason to not crash out in front of the boob tube.
