// Dolphin Saddle by Jeff Koons, a lithograph from 2009, is a playful and abstract piece that merges everyday imagery with a surreal twist. The composition features a dolphin-like form entwined with various shapes resembling wooden beams, outlined in vivid pink and brown tones. This fusion of organic and geometric elements reflects Koons’ unique approach to exploring the interplay between whimsy and structure. The exaggerated outlines and bold colors give the piece a cartoonish quality, emphasizing themes of innocence, fantasy, and the absurdity often present in Koons' works. The print exudes a sense of spontaneity and invites open interpretation.

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.
