Color Screenprint - Numbered (unsigned edition) with blindstamp // Banksy's Grannies (2006) is a satirical silkscreen print that juxtaposes the innocence of elderly women with rebellious, punk culture. The artwork depicts two elderly women knitting sweaters with slogans Punks Not Dead and Thug For Life against a vibrant pink background. The humorous contrast between the stereotypically gentle image of grandmothers and the rebellious phrases challenges societal norms and questions the perceptions of age and rebellion. This limited edition screenprint, numbered with a blindstamp, embodies Banksy's signature blend of irony and social commentary, making it both visually striking and thought-provoking.

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.
