Theme Tour “Appropriation Art”
On Sunday, March 10, at 17:00 the PinchukArtCentre invites all visitors to participate in a Thematic Tour “Appropriation Art” where they will learn about appropriation art as one of artistic strategies in contemporary art.
Artists often borrow imagery from popular culture, advertising, media and from other artists to use it in their own works. During the tour the focus will be on the outstanding representatives of this strategy, such as Richard Prince, one of the major appropriation artists of the 20th century who uses borrowing as a unique author's signature; Chapman brothers using original series of etchings by Francisco Goya's "Horrors of War" as a basis for their works; Jeff Koons, Thomas Ruff, and many other.
The event starts at 17:00 on the 2nd floor of the art centre, reception area. The tour will be guided by Tetiana Zhurko, PinchukArtCentre’s guide.
