The Chapman Brothers<br />

In 2003, Mark & Dinos Chapman famously bought and then altered a set of Los Caprichos, - a series of etchings<br />

by Goya. Working on top of the original prints (there are several in circulation) they ‘vandalised’ the original<br />

work, by painting on top of it. In doing this, they literally ‘appropriated’ the work of Goya and made it their<br />

own, placing the original in a different context and creating something new.
