What is "appropriation"?
Appropriation is the practice of using existing artworks, images, or styles as part of a new work. This technique involves changing or borrowing elements from other artists, cultures, or periods to create something new. It can be used to analyze or comment on the original work or its context, often by presenting familiar visuals in a different or new way. Artists like Marcel Duchamp and Sherrie Levine have used appropriation to challenge traditional ideas about originality and creativity. This approach emphasizes how art can be a conversation between past and present, combining and changing elements to offer new perspectives.
