Description

The Banquet: Hunter Reynolds and Chrysanne Stathacos

The Banquet, first preformed at Thread Waxing Space in 1992, was largely inspired by Surrealist Meret Oppenheim’s Spring Feast, in which a banquet was presented on the body of a nude woman. Andre Breton later encouraged Oppenheim to reenact Spring Feast for the Paris Exhibtion entitled Exposition InteR natiOnale du Surrealsime (the last joint exhibition of the Surrealist group). In The Banquet, Stathacos and Reynolds have inverted Oppenheim’s original event by substituting a nude man for the woman, blatantly confronting issues of male dominance throughout (art) history.
