An exhibition catalogue dedicated to American conceptual artist Barbara Kruger, whose provocative combination of text, imagery, and graphic design has become one of the most recognizable visual languages in contemporary art.
Published on the occasion of her 2006 exhibition at the Kestnergesellschaft in Hannover, the book documents an immersive graphic installation alongside Twelve, a video work exploring the dynamics of language, power, and human relationships.
Drawing from advertising, mass media, and consumer culture, Kruger's work confronts questions of desire, identity, gender, and the ways images shape our understanding of reality.
A compelling publication at the intersection of conceptual art, feminist critique, typography, and visual culture.
