This #2 edition of the no name for ART CARNIVAL is flavored with fine art photography ~ which I ** LOVE **. I hope you enjoy the interesting articles on photography also.

Art Review

eArtfair features the work byfine art photographer Barbara Kruger with her feminist and social commentary artwork. Barbara Kruger juxtaposes mass media photographs with biting slogans. Her art both questions and condemns mass media’s ways of control self-identity, desire, and public opinion. This article features a video showcase of her artwork, as well as offering a review.
