Students in Action - Appropriated Art

Stealing Art! - The Art of Appropriation

Students were inspired by artists who appropriate other artwork into their own concepts and expression. They studied people like Picasso, Warhol, Kehinde Wiley, Cindy Sherman, Banksy, Shepard Fairey. 

Each student chose images of art to print from famous artworks and used these to make gel and tape transfers. 

These transfers have been altered and incorporated into multi-media works that the students created. The idea was to ENVISION how the "stolen" artist's work could be unified with their own style and ideas. 

Here are the Guerrilla Students in Action of EXPLORATION AND CREATION.

Postcard Exchange

AMAZING ARTISTS PARTICIPATE IN EXCHANGE WITH GUERRILLA ART STUDENTS!

Students of the Curie Guerrilla classes have paired with artists around America who have joined our Exchange Event. Those artists made art postcards and are sending them to our Guerrilla students. The Guerrilla students will send their art postcards in return. Each Guerrilla postcard has a QR code so that
anyone who views the card can immediately connect to this blog via smartphone.

What makes this Guerrilla? Art is sent out of the building into another's hands. A connection is made between Guerrilla Student Artist and Exchange Artist. By sending postcards, both express their artwork message in the wider world.
