what i love about her art is that they talk about real life issues or atleast make you think about them. Everything is very bold and eye catching, so if you were to be walking down the street there is no way you would be able to miss her message, which is obviously what she wants.
her earliest artwork dates back to 1969
After making art for a few years she went to teach at Berkely to teach for four years , and then after she took up photography
During the early 1980s Barbara Kruger perfected a signature agitprop style, using cropped, large-scale, black-and-white photographic images juxtaposed with raucous, pithy, and often ironic aphorisms, printed in Futura Bold typeface against black, white, or deep red text bars
Walls, floors, and ceilings are covered with images and texts, which engulf and even assault the viewer.
this picture is probably my favorite, just because i know a few people who were in abusive relationships.
since the late 1990s, Kruger has incorporated sculpture into her ongoing critique of modern American culture.
