19) Exit Through the Gift Shop

 I honestly do not know how to feel about the film that we watched in class. I do not believe that Mr. Brainwash aka Thierry is Banksy himself. I do believe that his creations are art because there is no clear definition of what art is; it can be a variety of different things in itself. Thierry takes existing creations that he likes and adds his own creative twist to each creative work, no different from when he made 200 "unique" art pieces and slightly changed each one. He's not an idiot, but he did get extremely lucky. In a way, I personally feel as though some people were forced to say that they liked his art because it was hyped so much and the comment from Banksy himself, they may have felt like if they didn't like it they would have been left out or not "woke" in the art community. These are just a few of my thoughts while and after watching. Everyone has a different take on the film same as everyone has a different take on what it means to be creative, but once again everyone is different and unique in their own ways.
