So Mr. Brainwash has added "Copyright Amusement Art LLC" to the bottom of his page. A quick google search brings up this page http://www.trademarkia.com/banksy-85181620.html . The following paragraph is found:

"On Friday, November 19, 2010, a U.S. federal trademark registration was filed for BANKSY. This trademark is owned by Amusement Art LLC., Beverly Hills, CA 90211. The USPTO has given the BANKSY trademark serial number of 85181620. The current federal status of this trademark filing is ABANDONED - EXPRESS. "

Can anyone explain this. Did Mr. Brainwash copyright "Banksy"?

Things that make you go hmmm????

Doesn't this just mean they're both using the same copyright organization?

That's what it seems like. Your google result doesn't sound directly linked to brainwash in any way. It just sounds directly linked to Amusement Art LLC which I'm guessing is a company that trademarks artist names. Did you do any research into the company?

i don't see where you're getting that. Amusement Art LLC seems to be the name of MBW's company.

Could be. I don't really care about the Banksy trademark thing because I know who Banksy is and I know who Thierry is and I know what their relation is. I can make a couple educated guesses as to why there's a dead trademark linked to the company. There's nothing strange enough about this to start up another conspiracy theory, but that's what the guy seemed to be suggesting. it does seem to be Thierry's company.

Amusement Art LLC is Brainwash's LLC or at least the company that runs his website. What I found interesting was that the Banksy trademark is owned by Amusement Art LLC, which is Brainwash. The fact that Brainwash apparently ownes the Banksy trademark is interesting.

If you don't care, why are you wasting your time commenting? Oh, and please do tell who Banksy is.

Robin Gunningham. He was exposed years ago and people either don't know, don't believe it, or forgot about it. He was at Lazzarini's dinner at Basel last year. Anywho, the thing about Brainwash's company having the Banksy name is interesting, but is it just a US thing? Banksy may have "Banksy" trademarked in the UK, and perhaps Banksy uses Thierry's in the states because of their history. Who knows but I'm sure there's a great explanation.
