I see my work as a series of attempts to ruin certain representations and to welcome a female spectator into the audience of men. If this work is considered incorrect, all the better, for my attempts aim to undermine that singular pontificating male voice-over which correctly instructs our pleasures and histories or lack of them.
Barbara KrugerWhat makes the production of my work so expensive? The whole installation thing - the construction, the objects, the technology. It really adds up.
Barbara KrugerI remember going into galleries and seeing this thing called conceptual art, and I understand peopleโs marginalization from what the art subculture is because if you havenโt crashed the codes, and if you donโt know what it is, you feel itโs a conspiracy against your unintelligence. You feel itโs fraud.
