Appropriation

My next project is based on the title of Appropriation. Appropriation art is the use of pre-existing objects or images with little or no transformation applied to them. To begin my project, I began to research different areas of Appropriation art and found what other artists class as Appropriation. I found a lot of collage pieces, such as Hannah Hoch, and very subtle Appropriation such as Marcel Duchamp. Collage varied from being slightly changed from the original, to using bits and pieces from other to create a completely new work of art. Then some works were as simple as putting a mustache on the Mona Lisa, or printing someone else’s work in a new order.
