MBW New print Basquiat, by Viking Surfer on Apr 9, 2016 5:01:45 GMT 1, As someone who loves Basquiat I am disgusted by this MBW work. It has no originality or tact.
I've come to realise that MBW is nothing more than a glorified Primark t-shirt designer; you might get something good one time, but for the most part it's all utter cack.

Poor Basquiat, to find himself being sold in this way. Basquiat was intelligent and eloquant, and came across as someone that Warhol admired.
Brainwash is just an opportunist who collaborated with Banksy and a PR team etc etc etc.
If any Brainwash assistants or team are reading this. How about Brainwishywashy the madame twanky of the art world make a print of his lover Banksy and stop just stealing stock images to throw paint on and re sell.
Warhol died a long time ago and celebrities images appeal to people but it's cheating in some ways. It's art with no balls, it's not sex pistols or Warhol, it's corporate re selling stuff that people can make themselves for free.

We've contributed some of the greats to the current pantheon, and I won't even begin to talk of NYC in the 70's.
The only time I've seen a MBW was on a wall at a fancy Los Angeles home, owned by a top voice-over guy. He was quite proud of it, obviously got through a gallery. I imagine these get snapped up by galleries and sold to their clientele.
But you can blame the French!

Relax yourself. It was genuine question. Where is MBW's market? Is he popular in America?

Relax yourself. It was genuine question. Where is MBW's market? Is he popular in America? Stop trying to cover your tracks and dig yourself out of a hole. Your reference to Americans was insulting, as if only the Americans will buy MBW rubbish. Why single out Americans? Why not any people from other countries? It's BS and you know it. I'm sure the MBW market is world wide after all it is a global economy. I bet there are even some people in England who not only like but actually own a MBW piece. Additionally, let me quote you " For anyone who says MBW gets dealt an unfair hand from us..." I can only hope that when you say "us" you mean the members of this forum collectively, including the Americans. Your "us" should rationally blend harmoniously with society and all the members of this forum. To all forum members ; please in the future don't single out one nation or race,creed ,color, religion, or sexual preference in your comments. I had hoped individually and collectively we were of higher thinking and moral fortitude than this. This is all I am going to say on this topic and as far as I'm concerned it's over. Now I will go back to trying to be a nice American.

If you're that enraged by MBW's use of a Basquiat to make art/money, then you might also want point a finger at Shepard Fairey and Pure Evil to name but two others who have produced Basquiat prints in the name of profit.
