The artist SpooF has released a limited edition postcard which spoofs a recent Banksy artwork. The Banksy artwork is a piece of stone engraved with a Pablo Picasso quote “The bad artists imitate, the great artists steal.” Picasso’s name has been scratched out and scrawled underneath “BANKSY”.
SpooF has taken/stolen these ready-made images from the internet and repackaged them as a postcard / print. The postcard is a statement of how art works it’s way into mainstream culture and commerce as well as questions ownership of ideas and moral issues of copyright infringement.
These SpooF / Banksy / Picasso postcards are available through Anteism while supplies last. Purchase Postcard /Print.
