The dollar bill is one of the most iconic images in culture and these cash art innovations take the recognizable currency to new levels with unexpected reworks that are easily identified, but hard to describe. There are a number of dollar bill reworks that are created as new forms of faux currency as well as artistic reconstructions that remove George Washington from the center and replace him with pop stars, other notable celebrities or Internet cartoon characters.
Included in this collection of cash art is a number of art installations that utilize dozens of dollar bills to create sculptures or models that comment on the very concept of currency in the world and how we might be losing sight of what's really important.
