Barbara Kruger – Institute of Contemporary Art Boston
On 3 November 2022, the Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston (ICA) will present a new site-specific commission by Barbara Kruger (b. 1945 in Newark, NJ). For over 40 years, Kruger has been a consistent, critical observer of contemporary culture. In her distinctive visual language, she uses striking textual statements and images from the mass media to create significant artworks that explore ideas of power, identity, consumerism and gender.
