Cars are Beautiful: Mr Brainwash @ The Petersen | Interactive Exhibit Tour w/ Mr Brainwash

Описание: French-born, Los Angeles-based artist Thierry Guetta (b. 1966), known by the moniker Mr Brainwash, has been active in the street art and contemporary art scenes for nearly two decades.

In his takeover of the Petersen Museum’s Armand Hammer Foundation Gallery, Mr Brainwash celebrates the automobile as a populist icon of American life and an inspirational machine that can spark imagination and joy.

In today's video we are honored to have the artist himself and our director of exhibitions, Bryan Stevens, walking us through and telling us why this is an exhibition that needs to be experienced first hand.
