    Exit Through the Gift Shop
    When British stencil artist Banksy traveled to Los Angeles to work, he came across obscure French filmmaker Thierry Guetta and his badly organized collection of videotapes involving the activities of graffiti artists. Inspired, Banksy assembled them with new footage to create this talked-about documentary, and the result is a mind-boggling and odd film (so strange as to be thought a hoax by some) about outsider artists and the definition of art itself.

 Bernard Piffaretti, Untitled, 2012. Acrylic on canvas, 94.4 x 78.7 inches, 239.78 x 199.9 centimeters. Image courtesy of Cherry and Martin, Los Angeles.

Contemporary French artist Bernard Piffaretti divides his canvases with a vertical line--then paints an abstract image on one half of the canvas and copies it on the other. The original becomes a copy and the copy becomes an original. He’s very consistent in his approach. It’s an interesting idea, and his results are colorful, lively and thought provoking. Our West Coast readers can see this work at Cherry and Marin in Los Angeles, which is presenting an exhibit of Piffaretti’s work. You can also visit his website ( www.bernardpiffaretti.com ) to view some of his work. But you’ll need to brush up on your French if you want to read the text!
