June 11-17 The Art Theatre of Long Beach presents: Banksy's 'EXIT THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP'
Filmmaker Thierry Guetta had been casually documenting the underground world of street art for years, but when he encounters Banksy, the famously elusive guerilla outlaw British stencil artist, his project takes a fascinating twist. Unimpressed with Guetta's footage, Banksy takes over filmmaking duties and Guetta reinvents himself as a street artist named Mr. Brainwash -- and, much to Banksy's surprise, immediately becomes a darling of the Los Angeles art scene.
