barbara kruger

Barbara Kruger try's to engage the concept of power through text and image, using only three colours, which is red gray and black. She believes everybody got answers but is more interested in questions, question that provoke doubt. Doubt tempers belief with sanity in her work. I found the reading that we did in class interesting and challenging because of the massive words that she had quoted in the reading.  

PowerPoint By Frances.

Power point on (18/07/11) by Frances was an inspirational because it got me thinking on how to start my zine and also what type of subject to use for my zine. I have not come up with an idea for my zine. In the PowerPoint Frances was saying that books used to be published by hand and how fonts changed though out the years like, Frances say, that bubble writing was popular in the 70s. I think that is true seeing it way back in the dark ages time calligraphy or old english was used most of the time.

Text and Image

I am using these three examples because i think that they interesting like this image of this guy it has text writing on his face. I think its a weird image but also interesting to look at. The grenade bomb i think its funny how the key bard forms the shape of the grenade.  I like the Giraffe and the elephant fighting over the job singe thinking that they acting like a bunch of animals just for a job. This guy looks like a zombi with words sticking out of his face but it also looks like a Van Gulf painting.
