Five decades of iconic and incisive art from Barbara Kruger
Published with Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Since the mid-1970s, Barbara Kruger (born 1945) has been interrogating the hierarchies of power and control in works that often combine visual and written language. In her singular graphic style, Kruger probes aspects of identity, desire and consumerism that are embedded in our everyday lives. This volume traces her continuously evolving practice to reveal how she adapts her work in accordance with the moment, site and context. The book features a range of striking images--from her analogue paste-ups of the 1980s to digital productions of the last two decades, including new works produced on the occasion of the exhibition. Also featured are singular works in vinyl, her large-scale room wraps, multichannel videos, site-specific installations and commissioned works. The book also showcases how Kruger's site-specific works have been reconceived for each venue, and includes a section of reprinted texts selected by the artist. Renowned for her use of direct address and her engagement with contemporary culture, Kruger is one of the most incisive and courageous artists working today. This volume explores how her pictures and words remain urgently resonant in a rapidly changing world.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

[publisher copy] "Traces her forever evolving practice, revealing how she has adapted her work to suit the moment, site and context. . . In these trying times, the book reminds us that Kruger's pictures and words remain as important as ever, shining a light on current affairs, cultural shifts, and the powers that be in a rapidly changing world."--Katy Cowan, Creative Boom. "Bold and convincing, occasionally overblunt and occasionally mischievous. Part backward looking and part revision and update for the constantly moving present, it embodies and thickens Kruger's refracting of the language of advertising and propaganda through an anticapitalist, humanist lens."--Jon Caramanica, The New York Times. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp green edges, a square & tight binding, covered in bold boards, no jacket as issued, unmarked & quite presentable. N° de réf. du vendeur RUB3782
