Is this the end of Brainwash?

"To permit one artist the right to use without consequence the original creative and copyrighted work of another artist simply because that artist wished to create an alternative work would eviscerate any protection by the copyright act"

Does this mean Thierry will have to come up with the hardest of things......an idea that is not simply a photograph with  a paint splatter on it?

  1. Not just Brainwash. It spells the end for about 95% of all street art. Well, hopefully anyway.

  3. My heart bleeds for the poor sod that set up this website, not a big fan of .info, but jesus, the comments section on here makes .info look like a bastion of academia.

    Stick to youtube comments hey kids. You'll find more than a few of your racist homophobic socially retarded "friends" over there.

  4. This blog needs shutting down, serves no purpose at all. Even if street art is dead I never see any comments made about any art, just childish insults.
    Bet funky feels like he wasted his time setting this up, if not he should do.
