Guetta and Brainwash Secret Gig
House | Wednesday 25th July 2012 | Osh
Two of our favourite things - house music and street art are coming together in an unmissable collision. World famous street artist Thierry Guetta aka Mr Brainwash is for one night only joining forces with none other than DJ mastermind and house music producer David Guetta to create the ultimate fusion of electronic music and street art. It really is a case of Guetta meets Guetta.
Street art culture obviously has a lot in common with the music scene but the choice of David Guetta, worldwide famous Paris-Ibiza based DJ, is surprising to say the least. Better known for recent hits ‘When love takes over’ featuring Kelly Rowland and ‘Turn me on’ with Nicki Minaj specifics of how the “fusion” will happen are still unannounced.
Mr Brainwash’s recent works include a play on the AmeriCAN flag by using 1400 empty spray cans to create the iconic flag and his debut show featured a 20-foot robot made out of old televisions along with spray painted stencils and posters of pop art inspired images. You definitely saw him in Banksy’s revealing and provocative film ‘Exit through the Gift Shop’ where we were given a rare insight into the underground world of street art.
Not one to shy away from controversy, as far as Brainwash is concerned there are no limits; He isn’t scared to think big and out of the box so this collaboration with Guetta should prove to be mega. This event will coincide with Mr Brainwash’s free first UK solo art show on 5th August and it’ll be unmissable - set right in central London next to the British Museum.
The collision of street art and music should prove to be what everyone is talking about come August. Taking place in a secret location in London you’ll want to be there to see what all the hype is about to register follow the link www.guettamrbrainwash.com/r-abc/.
