BARBARA KRUGER- artist research



Barbara Kruger is an American conceptual artist. Much of her work consists of black-and-white photographs overlaid with declarative caption. By 1979, Kruger stopped taking photographs and began to employ found images in her art, mostly from mid-century American print-media sources, with words collaged directly over them like this image and her work because i like how se write bold statements on pictures. I think she wrote this slogan to show that women should not be underestimated and should be taken seriously as they are strong and powerful. I think she chose this specific background image because she's making a serious expression helping the photographer make her statement.
