Who owns what?
Barbara Kruger, 2012

Kruger combines a dynamic visual style with texts that are often ironic, accusatory or confrontational. Directly addressing the viewer, her works challenge us to think about social inequality, gender politics and the false promises of capitalism. The question that she poses here is only three words long, but can interpreted and answered in many ways. As statistics reveal that wealth is concentrated in even fewer hands, Kruger’s work remains powerfully relevant. - Tate Modern wall text taken in Tate Modern by @mikebickal

Black Pope (Sandwich Board Man)
Charles White
1973
Oil Wash on board

The enigmatic “Pope” at the center of this oil-wash drawing flashes viewers a gesture that is both a papal blessing and a peace sign. Wearing a sandwich board that exclaims “NOW” but doesn’t list any specific demands, the heavily draped man moves through an undefined space, in front of a hanging banner that shows the lower half of a skeleton, but is trapped beneath ruled lines that recall a camera’s viewfinder. The word “CHICAGO,” at the top, suggests a link with the artist’s hometown, but little else about the meaning of this work can be definitively stated. The ambiguity at the center of Black Pope (Sandwich Board Man) is the key to its power.
