Screenprint in colors on J.B. Green Wove Paper - Printed by Styria Studio, Inc. - Published by Multiples, Inc. - Series: Reality & Paradoxes - Sheet 23 1/8 × 31 3/8in. (58.7 × 79.7 cm) - Plate 17 1/8 × 31 3/8in. (43.5 × 79.7 cm) // Untitled (Skull) by Jasper Johns, produced in 1973, is a striking screen-print from the Reality & Paradoxes series. The artwork features a stark grayscale gradient with a haunting, fragmented skull on the left side, dissolving into the void. The drip effect below the gradient evokes a sense of melting or dissolution, adding to the eerie atmosphere. Johns’ exploration of mortality and identity is evident, with the skull acting as both a memento mori and a symbol of existential uncertainty. The print, made on J.B. Green Wove Paper, showcases his signature minimalist and conceptual style.

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.
