Bidlo jumped into contemporary art scene at the beginning of the `80s at the East Village. He belongs, together with Sherry Levine and some other artists, to the so called appropriationism, or, as he likes to define himself, he is an "absorptioner of the XXth century masterpieces", such as paintings and sculptures of artists like Picasso, Leger, Brancusi, Man Ray and others.
