Appropriation
A practice central to the world of contemporary art during the 1980s, appropriation refers to the borrowing of familiar objects and images, and applying them to new and unconventional artistic contexts. The rise of consumerism and mass media broadcasting during these years allowed artists to make use of recognisable images from popular culture in their work. The technique has been rendered across several iconic movements such as Dadaism, Surrealism, and Pop Art.
Appropriation has been specifically attributed to certain contemporary artists, and some of their works have become globally recognized for their unorthodox and juxtaposing style. From Salvador Dalí's Lobster Telephone, to Andy Warhol's iconic pop art collages to Marcel Duchamp's “readymade" working of a men's urinal, the use of appropriation can certainly be recognized across a variety of contemporary movements.
Today, appropriation remains a popular tool in the contemporary world, and we have curated a selection of artists whose work echoes this striking and innovative practice. Some of our favorites include Annick B. Cuadrado, Jeff Koons and Bertrand Lavier. If you're searching for works which surprise and delight, check out our top picks!
