Barbara Kruger Untitled We are all that heaven allows , Covering every available space including the floor and the ceiling with her trademark white text on red backgrounds, Barbara transformed the pristine white gallery space into a barrage of images and texts that assaulted the spectator from every available angle.
On the floor appears multiple texts that render the discourse of power tangible, their visceral and violent address rooting you to the spot. All that seemed blind sees through you. All that seemed silent is putting words right into your mouth. With her combination of brutal images and inflamed text Barbara transforms the usually serene gallery space into a metaphor for the body in pain where the instruments of torture become channelled through the violence of language, both visual and verbal.
There is no extension out. There is no external thought. There is no metaphor. We live under a reconstituted notion of a received idea of morality that is a language all too often appropriated by the right. What is good and what is evil? We have to learn to have an understanding of difference. We have to learn to accept the other.
Each character spoke about their pain and anguish in isolation from the others. The overall sensation of the work was one of seclusion. In the current video installation Barbara plans to reverse this effect. Four huge images of four people sitting over a table engaged in conversations about their lives, their families, their lovers and their enemies are projected onto each wall of the gallery. The text will act as a commentary on what is being said in the images above, sometimes stamping the moment, sometimes appearing as a free floating element.
As such, this new body of work has an architectural element attached to it, in which the body of the spectator becomes embroiled in the body of verbal and textual discourse that circulates throughout the room. In the past Barbara has explored the ability of architecture to position us within a social and political space. Her completion of Imperfect Utopia with the architects Smith-Miller and Hawkinson in , a giant permanent outdoor installation at the North Carolina Museum of Art, is an impressive example of how her work may function as architecture.
Maybe it will make shoppers stop and think about our own integration into the logic of capital and consumer culture. In classic Tarantino style the film proves to be an orgy of violence played out through a fusion of manga aesthetics and stylised brutality. I love his work. The violence can sometimes be excessive but that is half the point. I hate it when other filmmakers degrade his contribution by implying that he simply parodies other movies.
All too often we are spun the line that intellectual property is for the protection of the artist but instead it is about protecting the profits of corporations.
