NEW YORK—In honor of the Richard Prince show at the Guggenheim, the copycat in all of us, and the art of appropriation in general, this week’s Top 5 presents five Web sites that allow you to channel your inner artist, even as you ape the style of certain contemporary masters. These are not how-to sites but interactive spaces where you do the doodling, dawdling, and constructing yourself.
So go ahead, choose your muse—
Pablo Picasso
Jackson Pollock
Ray Johnson
Tracy 168
Alexander Calder
—and get to work.
