Qui êtes-vous, Barbara Kruger?

Barbara Kruger is an American conceptual artist. Her famous collage work consists of black and white photographs with overlaid captions. This kind of appropriation art - using borrowed elements in the creation of something new - is accompanied with strong text messages and has often appeared in public places, billboards, bus stations. Ironically enough, Kruger's work uses the commercial imagery of magazine advertising to depict her criticism on sexism, consumerism or classicism. Some of her most renowned slogans are: "Money can buy you love", "I shop therefore I am",“Your body is a battleground".
