All art arises from other art, not from romantic notions of pure inspiration. -Paul H. Tucker • “The bad artists imitate. The great artists steal.” -Banksy, quoting Picasso
Appropriation • The deliberate reworking of images or styles from previous, well known works of art; a hallmark of Post-Modernism.
“It is almost a year now since we saw the Van Gogh exhibition, and really, the memory of it haunts me ceaselessly.” - Andre Derain, 1902
Influence • Being swayed or inspired by an artist’s styles or ideas. The work produced may not resemble the influencing source.
Appropriation and Influence are not absolutes, they are points on a spectrum
Proper citation • Give credit where credit is due • Modification • Change things so it is clear that you are taking the idea/image/technique in a new direction
Proper Citation • For IB you must always give credit to any material sources that are not solely from you. • That does not mean that you can’t look up images or borrow from artists…it just means that you give credit.
