Career Through work as a graphic designer, art director, and picture editor that Kruger developed a professional career as she defined herself as an artist. Her early experience as a graphic designer was the biggest influence on her work: “So, in a sort of circular fashion, my ‘job’ as a designer became, with a few adjustments, my ‘work’ as an artist.” -Kruger

Methods “I make art about power, love, life, and death.”-Kruger iconography is drawn from the 1940s and 1950s imagery derived from old film stills or advertisements acute camera angles, harsh lighting, and close-ups Kruger probes the boundaries separating advertising, propaganda, and art. “I make art about power, love, life, and death.”-Kruger

Approaches consciousness raising propaganda and advertising. female point of view texts -gender equity Images- females in positions of male roles of possession and control. “I could say that I’m involved in a series of attempts to displace things, to change people’s minds, to make them think a little bit… I am interested in making art that displaces the powers that tell us who we can be and who we can’t be.”- Kruger

Studio 1969 -started to make art 1970 -moved into a loft in Tribeca that remains her New York studio 1970s work: crocheted and sewn hangings adorned with paint, glitter, ribbons, etc. that asserted these decorative, techniques into the language of “art.” 1976 -shifted her work into more abstract object making 1977 -photography The time had come to “re-think what it would mean to call herself an artist.”

Relatedness to other artists Marcel Duchamp “She has pretty much refused to be overly expressive about herself-as-artist, and her work, though each example of it is blatantly a signature piece, has something of the impersonal lucidity we find in Marcel Duchamp’s work.”
