Works by Janine Antoni are including in YES, CHEF, a group exhibition on view at Water Street Projects in downtown New York through October 20, 2024.
Featuring works by 34 contemporary artists, YES, CHEF foregrounds the connections between food and power— the ancestral, erotic, and visceral attributes of food, as well as the objects, hierarchies, and rituals that organize the ways that we commune and break bread together. It highlights our relationship to power, domination, and violence, and in particular how those intersect with desire, consumption, and nourishment. Many of the works on view hold the tension between nurture and violence or care and consumption while also spotlighting the broader migrations of foods, peoples, and cultures. .
