Added art

Added Art uses an existing piece of artwork for its canvas, just as traditional graffiti uses the wall of a building for the canvas. It is essentially the graffiti of artwork. Added Art is a merging of high and low art, using the concepts of graffiti, in a high art environment. Adding to someone else's work has been a very common occurrence in graffiti for decades. In the urban environment, it is typically considered aggressive or antagonistic in nature,[1][2] but also form of competition. However, it is still considered a taboo in the more established high arts, even though it has been practiced for over fifty years by stalwarts such as Rauschenberg in his Erased de Kooning Drawing.[3] In more recent examples, Banksy has done several added art pieces over Damien Hirst's "spot" painting,[4][5] and Mat Benote used an untitled work by Robert Morris at the MoMA in NYC as a canvas.[6] A very interesting example was done by the Chapman Brothers, who painted over sketches originally created by Adolf Hitler.[7]
