Appropriation: Banksy

In class we are studying art appropriation. Art appropriation is the idea of using previous works of art to create something new, intentional borrowing or copying of a pre-existing work. Below are some of Banksy's works, he has taken existing works and altered them. He has altered the work to communicate his slightly satirical message.
