Screenprint on Rives BFK White paper // Raised Eyebrows/Furrowed Foreheads (Red, White and Blue) by John Baldessari is a screen-print from 2008 that plays with visual symbolism and minimalism. Part of the Artist for Obama portfolio, this work is printed on Rives BFK White paper and features a black-and-white, blurred image of an intense gaze, likely conveying a sense of urgency or contemplation. Overlaying the face are three wavy lines in red, white, and blue—an unmistakable nod to the American flag. Baldessari’s use of simple elements to evoke political and emotional connotations demonstrates his conceptual approach, encouraging viewers to reflect on the layered meanings within his work.

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.
