What font does Barbara Kruger use?
The font that Barbara Kruger uses is Futura Bold. In 1979, the artist unveiled her first works, featuring a combination of type and image in her signature colors of black, white and red. The phrases that Kruger superimposes onto the imagery in her work are as pointed, direct and authoritative as the visuals, with the best-known examples including I Shop Therefore I Am and You Are a Captive Audience.
