Is a new Mr. Brainwash piece that recently cropped up in Los Angeles the street art version of a For Your Consideration ad for Banksy’s Oscar-nominated documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop ? Definitely. And we’re hoping that he wins too, just because we’re curious about who will go up and accept the award. As the elusive street artist stated last week, “I don’t agree with the concept of award ceremonies, but I’m prepared to make an exception for the ones I’m nominated for. The last time there was a naked man covered in gold paint in my house, it was me.” [via LAist]
