Edition of 50 with eight AP's - Fi Color Hand Printed Stone Lithographic - In excellent condition // Allen Jones's Playtime (1995) is a visually dynamic lithograph that merges elements of surrealism with a playful exploration of form and figure. The composition centers on a stylized piano player, fragmented and interwoven with vibrant colors of pink, yellow, green, and black, evoking an atmosphere of intensity and movement. The figure's body is portrayed with exaggerated limbs and hands in motion, while a framed image of a reclining woman adds a layer of intrigue, hinting at themes of performance, sensuality, and artistic expression. Jones’s characteristic use of vivid color and distorted forms emphasizes the theatrical and surreal, capturing the viewer's attention with its striking contrasts and layered meanings. This limited-edition lithograph, part of a series of 50, reflects Jones's fascination with the intersection of art, music, and the human figure, blending fantasy with reality.

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.
