Companion to the exhibition of the same name, 'Feast'explores the role of the meal in contemporary art. Since the 1930s, the act of sharing food and drink has been used to advance aesthetic goals and foster critical engagement with the culture of the moment; from the Italian Futurists' banquets in the 1930s, to 1960s and '70s conceptual and performative work, to the global prevalence of socially engaged practices today. Both exhibition catalogue and reader, the publication offers an interdisciplinary exploration of the art of the meal and its relationship to questions about hospitality, politics, and culture.
