re:turning the call 

appropriation - To take possession of another's imagery, often without permission, reusing it in a context which differs from its original context, most often in order to examine issues concerning originality or to reveal meaning not previously seen in the original. This is far more aggressive than allusion or quotation, it is not the same as plagiarism however.

re:turning the all 

Contemporary Art often takes the form of cultural commentary, criticism, parody. Art using appropriation is no exception. The subject of this artistic commentary ranges widely, but often involves the examination of the cultural products of others. Aspects of these are often reproduced as part of the work of art, but in such a way that the subject is transformed and offers the world something new. The new works that are produced comment on the world in which we live and reflect the nature of creativity itself.
