Barbara Kruger, Sprüth Magers, Grafton St. London
The razor-sharp, witty and unmistakable work of Barbara Kruger explores the power of image and word and touches on the dynamics of control, class, corruption and consumerism. For over four decades, her voice and aesthetic have transcended the insularity of the art world and influenced everyday visual culture. Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present an exhibition of new works by Kruger at the London gallery. The artist’s most recent text-based wall work and series of vinyls will be set in dialogue with a group of ‘paste-ups’—collages from the 1980s related to some of her early and best-known works.
