Artist Comparison

Bill Brandt and Barbara Kruger

The two artists have some similar images, Brandt uses body parts in black and white and Kruger also uses body parts and adds coloured borders words. Kruger has a slightly different message to Brandt as she tackles the everyday assumptions of contemporary society. Whereas Brandt has more of a Surrealists approach and in his project focuses mainly on body parts. Kruger uses a more varied range of images from peoples faces, art work, body and other staged images. Brandt uses mainly arms and legs on pebbles at the beach. His images being black and white create contrast and deep shadows. By taking inspiration from the artists I will incorporate them into my photoshoots.
