Discuss the word "appropriation" in the context of Barbara Kruger's photograph Your Gaze Hits the Side of My Face

What will be an ideal response?

Whereas Warhol painted portraits of graphic design, Barbara Kruger appropriated its methods. As an experienced graphic designer for magazines, she became an expert in the power of the combination of words and images to influence a reader. Juxtaposing text and images in her photograph, Kruger uses the familiar look of graphic design to convey unexpected and unsettling messages.
