As a documentary of street graffiti culture, it seems a little overshadowed; if it is regarded as the personal biography of the legendary Banksy, it will end up as a catch-all. It is clearly the work of the graffiti master himself. How could he have the cheek to make a biography for himself? Halfway through the show, I gradually sensed the irony, which turned out to be aimed at the art dealers. They have money, but they don't really understand art. They just rely on dislocated enthusiasm and use the influence of media to attract a large number of audiences to flock to them, thereby making speculative profits.

From the staggering life experience of Mr. Brainwashing, I found myself beginning to wonder what is the true meaning of art? Why can't Mr. Brainwash's works be considered real works of art? Should art pursue stunning aesthetic effects, or should it continue to pursue commercial value? If Michelangelo, Van Gogh, Picasso is art, then what kind of art is street graffiti? If street graffiti can be favored by the audience, why can't it be sold as a commodity?

All the confusions were not completely resolved in the end, but at least this documentary brought me another angle to understand street graffiti, and even allowed me to walk into the boundless world of art, appreciate the various gestures of art and its background meaning.

    Finally, it was said that Theirry’s wife picked up the camera that her husband had left behind and started shooting, feeling like it. Banky seems to have become a supporting role in the second half of mystery. This documentary is not easy to judge whether it is Banksy revealing the secret, or Theirry is like Mark Zuckerberg, or street art and pop art, together with art itself, become entertainment. Andy Warhol is unmatched

    1. Although it was filmed by Banksy, it is by no means an autobiography of Banksy, but Banksy discusses "talent outside the gallery" from the growth of his friend Tyler 2. This talent is not necessarily artistic talent 3. The reversal is the highlight of this film 4. In this film, you can experience the so-called art that your incompetent foolish friends borrowed from everywhere by piecing together the so-called art, bragging all over the place, and the result is more mixed than you. Feels like you are more famous than you earn more hahahahaha

Exit Through the Gift Shop quotes

  • Banksy: There's no one like Thierry, even though his art looks like everyone else's.

  • Banksy: Warhol repeated iconic images until they became meaningless, but there was still something iconic about them. Thierry really makes them meaningless.
