“Appropriating the appropriated, Andrea Salerno weaves together two copies of Le Point d’Ironie n°11 (Hans-Peter Feldmann, 1999) as part of his series How They Met Themselves.”
Salerno adds an extra layer of appropriation to Feldmann’s broadside of appropriated childrens’ portrait photographs: two copies of the original broadside have been cut into ribbons and have been carefully woven together to recreate the images, resulting in a a fuzzy distortion that blurs and softens the subjects, as if viewing them through a patterned glass wall.
