Suicide Squad “Harley” Screen Print by Mr. Brainwash

In celebration of the opening weekend of Warner Bros’ Suicide Squad in theaters, Mr. Brainwash is releasing a new limited edition screen print inspired by the film. “Harley”, which features Margot Robbie in her spot-on portrayal of DC Comics’ Harley Quinn, is a 7 color 30”x22.5” screen print on hand torn archival art paper. Each print comes signed and numbered, with MBW’s thumb print on the back. Limited to just 150 pieces, collectors can purchase this print at the Mr. Brainwash online store at 12pm PDT today, Friday, August 5th, for $300.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Screen Print by Mr. Brainwash

It’s been a long time since Mr. Brainwash released a print that The Blot really loved, but I would totally hang his upcoming “Batman vs Superman” screen print! I love the way MBW meshes DC Comics’ beloved super hero trinity (Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman) with graffiti and the street art movement. If only Warner Bros’ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which also drops in theaters today, had the same joy and levity as this print.

“Batman vs Superman” by Mr. Brainwash is a 37”x24” signed and numbered 13 color Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice screen print on hand torn archival art paper. Limited to 216 pieces, this print will go on sale at 12pm PST today, Friday, March 25th, at the Mr. Brainwash online store for $500 each.

Star Trek Inspired Screen Print “Generations” by Mr. Brainwash

If you’ve been following the raging Mr. Brainwash debate online, then you know the art world doesn’t quite know what to make of this enigmatic French artist. Whether you love or hate MBW, you can’t deny he’s provocative. While The Blot doesn’t love everything he does, I can appreciate his passion for pop culture, and nothing personifies that better than his Star Trek inspired screen print “Generations.”


“Generations" features the crew of the Starship Enterprise (Kirk, Spock, Bones, Sulu and Uhura), a member of the Gorn species (a race of humanoid reptiles) and some other random people in a retro, old school looking photo. Mr. Brainwash did a similar print with Star Wars characters, and while they’re not everyone’s cup of tea I really like them!

“Generations” is a 22”x30” seven color screen print on archival art paper. The print includes gold and silver metallic inks, comes signed and numbered by the artist, and also includes his thumb print on the back. This Star Trek themed screen print goes on sale Tuesday, April 13th, at 12pm PST at the Mr. Brainwash online store. MBW is only creating 75 of these retro styled prints, and even at $300 a pop they will almost assuredly sell out in a matter of moments.

Art Asylum Boston Presents "Art Strikes Back"

As you all know, The Blot is a huge Star Wars fan, so I really wish I could make it to Art Asylum Boston for its upcoming Star Wars themed art show entitled Inspirations From Above: "Art Strikes Back."

Mr. Brainwash - The Chocolate Vandal Print

Mr. Brainwash already has a new print ready to go for release this Thursday. “The Chocolate Vandal” marks the third release in as many weeks for this mysterious street artist and it’s a good one. "The Chocolate Vandal" is based on Jean-Etienne Liotard's "The Chocolate Girl," originally painted in 1744, Brainwashed in 2009.


“The Chocolate Vandal” is a 22”x30” screen print on textured archival art paper and comes signed and numbered by MBW. This all new print has a limited edition of just 50 prints and will be available for sale Thursday, March 26th, at 12pm PST at Mr. Brainwash’s online store.

Mr. Brainwash Prints - Jackson Pollock and 33rd St.

The Blot is excited to highlight the work of one of my new favorite graffiti artists, Mr. Brainwash. As the story goes “Mr. Brainwash, or MBW, is the moniker of an eccentric French filmmaker who has spent the last nine years attempting to make the ultimate documentary about graffiti art. But whilst filming many of the world’s most renowned street artists at work, MBW began putting his camera aside and making art of his own.” (link) MBW has since created a unique style all his own which has transformed into an extremely popular urban street art campaign.

What’s great about Mr. Brainwash’s graffiti is that it “does not fit the stereotype of your average street vandal. His artistic process chiefly consists of throwing random modern cultural icons into a blender and turning it up to eleven. The results are by turns profound, provocative and inspirational.” (link) Over the course of the next two weeks Mr. Brainwash is releasing two all new prints which I think many fans of The Blot Says… will enjoy.

First up is MBW’s “Jackson Pollock” print that of course features the famous American abstract expressionist artist. The “Jackson Pollock” print is a 22”x30” screen print which is individually hand finished and unique. Only 40 of the 50 limited edition hand signed and numbered prints will be available for sale on Wednesday, March 11th at the Mr. Brainwash online store. This print will retail for $250 and can be purchased here at around noon on the 11th.


The second print, “33rd St,” is one of my favorites because its background features the street art of some very notable artists including Obey Giant’s Shepard Fairey and Andre. "33rd St" is a 22”x30” 15 color screen print on archival paper and is limited to an edition of 50. This hand signed and numbered print will be available at around noon on Wednesday, March 18th here and will retail for $175.
