Well, well, well, it’s been a little while. I’m back with an attractive long post. 

The focus is on The Appropriation Effect. We’ll answer some questions to clarify its role in Abstract Collectivism.

1- What is the relationship between the Appropriation Effect and Abstract Collectivism?

The Appropriation Effect is a critical component of Abstract Collectivism but is not the only important element. Suppose you have the skills, creativity, and ability to imagine new possibilities. In that case, you can apply Abstract Collectivism without relying on the Appropriation Effect. However, if you struggle with generating new ideas or cannot draw, you can use the Appropriation Effect to gather inspiration and incorporate existing concepts into your work.

2- How can one use the Appropriation Effect to create original art?

Remember, Abstract Collectivism enables anyone to create great art, even if you are out of inspiration. 

Do you understand why Pablo Picasso said, “Art is theft”? 

He believed one could steal like an artist. Does this mean artists are thieves?

Did you grasp the concept? 

Really? 

What now?

Another author stated, “If you steal from one, it’s plagiarism; if you steal from many, it’s research.” 

“Got it?” 

I hope so!

Let’s continue reading.

“If you have one person you’re influenced by, everyone will say you’re the next whoever. 

But if you borrow from a hundred people, everyone will say you’re so original.” (Dr Jared Smith, Steal Like an Artist)

Do you get it now?

“Then! Prepare to rip off hundreds of people, and you will be original.”

Many people claim that artists are thieves, but Picasso responded to this criticism by saying, “Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief.” In truth, good artists do not simply copy the work of others. Instead, they study the work of others and create something original by making it their own.

By doing so, the Appropriation Effect comes into play. Appropriation means taking something for your use or devoting it to a particular purpose. The Appropriation Effect is taking something for your use, usually without permission, to bring about a change resulting from this act of taking.

However, it is essential to remember that taking something does not mean simply copying it. For example, the Greek Acanthus, the Gothic Clover, and the Ogive are all imitations of natural leaves. Artists have always looked to nature for inspiration, whether in the flying buttresses of buildings or the arcs of bridges.

The Appropriation Effect is a technique used in art where materials and sources are borrowed from different places to create something original. It is important to note that art’s beauty is not the same as nature’s, but art can help us see certain realities of nature.

Abstract Collectivism is a new movement that draws inspiration from various sources, such as books, movies, and music and aims to create original works of art. While it is possible to explain Abstract Collectivism to a certain extent by looking at its preexisting materials and sources, the true beauty of the movement lies in its ability to transform these elements into something new and unique.

When creating art using the Appropriation Effect, it is essential to borrow from others to create something original. This technique allows for expressing repressed emotions and can reveal unconscious symbols of dramatic moments.

It is impossible to explain a work of art entirely, but psychoanalytic and sociological explanations can provide insight into its surroundings. The key to creating original art is to release the imagination through improvisation and embrace the mysterious liveliness that transforms materials and sources into something new and beautiful.
