Mr Brainwash at the Opera Gallery


Visiting the Mr Brainwash solo show at the Opera Gallery, London, somehow found its way towards the top of my agenda during Frieze Week 2011. I can't say I am a big fun of Mr Brainwash but i was intrigued, due to the fact that this would be my first opportunity to see his works up-close and - more importantly - because I am still not entirely convinced the artist in question actually exists!

The works were a mixture of gimmicky, designed-to-be-eye-catching, some good-looking, some bad-looking but mostly pleasant affairs . Weirdly, the solo exhibition also featured stray works by artists such as Blek Le Rat, Zoobs, and a couple of others!

P.S.: Unfortunately, I didn't make it to London early enough to catch the private view "in the presence of the artist" so the question of his existence still remains!
