Pedaços interessantes:
"I have a large collection of famous art at home, but they’re all fakes. I make them myself. If I like a picture I grab a photo, project it up and paint it. Sometimes I change the colours to fit with the curtains. I do it partly because I’m tight and partly because if the Basquiats and Picassos in the sitting room were real I’d be too scared to ever leave the house.
“I don’t make as much money as people think. The commercial galleries that have held exhibitions of my paintings are nothing to do with me. And I certainly don’t see money from the T-shirts, mugs and greeting cards. My lawyer calls me ‘the most infringed artist alive’ and wants me to do something about it. But if you’ve built a reputation on having a casual attitude towards property ownership, it seems a bit bad-mannered to kick off about copyright law.”
“It’s ironic that some people think the film is a spoof, because this is one of the most honest films you’re ever likely to see,” he responds. “There was no plan, no agenda; we didn’t even realise we were making a film until halfway through. With most documentaries they plan in advance what’s going to happen so they can get funding. We just had some cameras rolling as things started to unravel. Actually, maybe you shouldn’t print that last bit — our distributor told me that if I call it a documentary nobody will come.
“Originally I wanted to call the film How to Sell Sh*t to C**ts, which he was fine about, but he said never call it a documentary. I hadn’t ever wanted to make a film, but in the end I didn’t have much choice. This bloke had been filming me painting for a few months when I noticed that every time we’d go on an adventure the stories I’d tell when I got home were about the cameraman. No matter what bridge we’d been hanging off or who’d chased us, it was always stories about the madman with the camera that got the laughs. So it made sense to turn the camera back on him [Guetta]. I think it’s an interesting story, but I want people to come and see it with low expectations. It’s not exactly Avatar with spray cans.”
