Barbara Kruger

Barbara Kruger made known itself by her feminist photographic assemblies which it carries out using advertising images and of slogans. She analyzes with work her work the reports/ratios of forces and the abusive use of providing with the image. She is a feminist but she include also the minorities nun and policy in his critic of the capacity. For it the company determines those which correspond to the standard and which are worthy to have share with the privilege of the capacity.

This state of affair is still of course integrated in the contemporary company, and it is maintained using subtle means through publicity. It include in these photographs by assembly of the texts like “Your desire of you even in the other” “your erotized combat” “your selective memory”

A key image of the assemblies of Barbara Kruger represents a magnet which attracts hundreds of nails, thus symbolizing the masses which one can handle, to justify easily, quickly to control. The leaders, dictators can make profitable this malleability of the masses. But the mass seems desired to be controlled. the masses do not have they not a sadomasochistic tendency masochist that slogans “fear as us” accompanies the photograph by a crowd.

The work of Barbara Kruger conceives his images as advertising bills whose meaning effectiveness is born from the photographic confrontation of assembly and slogan. Its work grants, as with other artists, a broad place with material photographs. Works of Barbara Kruger are at the same time images to see and writings deciphered.
