Gilbert & George never cook and always eat out. Back in 1969, however, the artist duo hosted The Meal, an elaborate dinner party that included thirteen guests, Princess Margaret's butler, a chef who prepared a meal from a Victorian cookery manual, and the guest of honor, artist David Hockney. While the art world of the time was largely characterized by Pop art, Minimalism, and Conceptual art, Gilbert & George developed an entirely unique philosophy and combined their daily lives with their artistic vision; in short, their art and life are one! Charlotte Birnbaum took a trip to London's East End to visit the immaculately dressed pair to discuss The Meal and other curious projects from their fifty-year collaboration. Also included here are photos and memorabilia from the singular event.
On the Table is a series of publications edited by Charlotte Birnbaum that explores the encounter between food and art.

Informazioni sull’autore
Les deux artistes traversent depuis la scène de l'art international avec autant d'insolence que d'élégance. Véritables sculptures vivantes, ils ont élaboré un langage répétitif autour de figures et motifs récurrents : la merde, la pisse, le sang, les larmes, la nudité, le sperme, l'alcool, la drogue. Une œuvre qui bouscule radicalement les conventions, la bien-pensance de l'époque et qui renvoie littéralement à l'homosexualité, l'exclusion, la violence sociale et religieuse.
