Suite: Poems by Wallace Stevens - Original Etching with Aquatint on T. Edmunds Paper - Hand signed in pencil by Jasper Johns // Summer by Jasper Johns, created in 1985, is a limited edition etching and aquatint print from the suite inspired by Poems by Wallace Stevens. This work showcases Johns' mastery in blending abstraction and symbolism, utilizing a monochromatic palette that contrasts textures and shapes. The composition features a ghostly human figure on the left, positioned against a textured brick-like background, while the right side displays a mix of geometric patterns, stars, and a fragmented object reminiscent of a record or wheel. This juxtaposition of imagery and form reflects Johns' interest in exploring the intersection of language, symbols, and visual art. Hand-signed in pencil, this piece is a testament to his intricate and thought-provoking approach to printmaking.

What is appropriation?

What is appropriation?

Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
