and going on top of something
[muttering indistinctly]
NARRATOR: The magical combination
in the city.
in a dramatic new direction.
couple tape here, couple tape here,
that, when you're close to it,
so Thierry now started
he was... he is the...
went back to 1989
when the sewing was different,
Invader visited Los Angeles for the first time,
This room looks interesting.
the first 200 people to turn up
that we would never have had otherwise.
but this fool's down for this, dog.
What exactly was Thierry filming for?
He filmed constantly...
and I said, Sure.
So from $50,
at getting a print?
The texture.
# These lights in our street are ours #
and it was all kind of going a little bit wrong.
Street art was poised
[crowd chattering]
It was an hour and a half
that we're getting a lot of this stuff on tape.
and maybe there's some things to be learned from it.
because it was, like, a mix of fears
One picture, yeah.
No one's really done it the way he's done it.
But I respect passion.
to a very different side of the Magic Kingdom.
That's not graffiti.
from every corner, they were on me.
but, you know, it's kind of... I think...
You can tell the real story of what this art is about.
Thierry struggled to keep himself entertained
putting the paintings up on the walls themselves.
pom, pom, pom, pom, pom,
# They tell no lies #
Peace to the whole world.
So I went to Los Angeles at about spring 2006,
In the months that followed,
what he considered to be a direct order:
from Miami and New York
# Tonight the streets are ours #
filming at night and street,
now set for just three weeks away,
And I start doing it
We start to see some people coming in,
into the venue for his first major U.S. exhibition,
# They tell no lies #
- Invader. - No, Thierry.
Most artists spend years perfecting their craft,
So that obviously seemed like the best place to put him.
We have a mountain of...
It's Bat Papi.
ready for her big moment.
L.A. Weekly.
But right now,
by transforming the cavernous space
kind of the same story of Obey,
and he was maybe just someone with mental problems
[hammering drum and bass music]
Because you're gonna attract attention.
Look at this. It's really big.
I used to think everyone should do it.
hanging stuff, moving stuff, carrying stuff,
I love the design of it.
and this is the way that I made it.
Uh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love you!
if he copies...
Okay?
That big image, I thought it was kind of cool.
NARRATOR: With a crew of 20 people
until they became meaningless,
When I came, I came with a camera,
I don't really do that so much anymore.
and I handed some out first of all,
re-creating the character, kind of way.
Right, you have the footage.
[springs creaking repeatedly]
it's about time.
but now there was a new development
They said, It's impossible.
Okay? Okay?
There should be more stuff like this in Los Angeles.
Sometimes in life, you have to go... to go...
You find it here?
Two beers. A couple beers.
and this piece has been pulled back a little bit.
It was kind of fun,
I don't know... 30 feet by 40 feet high, you know?
Life is Beautiful stayed open for a further two months,
Two, three.
he could fix it all up.
for the 200 free posters or no?
At that time,
This one, I'm not sure.
In one moment, they stopped the train.
So this guy shows up
# #
It was the name of my best friend
Yeah, we were, you know, laughing like trains
Fantastic.
