Barbara Kruger’s Untitled (a Thing Called You) is a sharp and evocative meditation on identity, desire, and objectification. Featuring her signature bold text over a monochromatic photographic background, the work confronts the viewer with the phrase “a thing called you,” turning the subject into an object with clinical detachment. As always, Kruger’s language is deliberate and charged - inviting questions about autonomy, control, and the ways we are defined by others. Visually minimal yet conceptually dense, the piece exemplifies Kruger’s ability to distill complex ideas into direct, confrontational, and unforgettable works.
