So Banksy didn't (to anyone's knowledge) show up at the Oscars yesterday, and he lost in his category anyway. But earlier in the day, Mr. Brainwash, his protégé (and star of his documentary "Exit Through the Gift Shop"), took credit for two new pieces about a block down from Hollywood and Highland: a little kid taking a photograph and an Oscar statue wearing Banksy's hoodie. Aw, at least Mr. Brainwash thinks Banksy is a winner. [Melrose&Fairfax]
