Food as a Metaphor

1. In my opinion i feel that it relates metaphorically to food as art because usually when you go to an art gallery, you view these sculptures and paintings and you visually take them in, and then days even hours later they forget about what they experienced. As when actually consuming the art work and having it come out their body they take it inside visually and they digest it and they see it days later (ew), but with that aside, I always remember what I've eaten.
2. The connection between Post WW-II and canned soup was that we became disconnected to the culture of growing and making food and also bonding bonding together making it. It showed we strayed from that and went to the instant canned goods we were familiar with.
3. I'm not sure how I feel about baking bread as a political act, but i understand where that if we don't know what goes into our bread and food as we don't know what goes into the decision makings in politics and the government that we are in, we truly are lost.
4. I feel both of the pieces are meant to empower someone, The last supper is to show Jesus and his disciples around the table gathering for what is to be known their last meal, The Dinner Party also gives us women a place to be in history where we've been forgotten.
5.  Rirkrit Tiravanija took advantage of the food as art experience in an amazing way, not only cooking to bring people together and showing them the art of bonding threw food, he also took the opportunity to give people knowledge about his culture.
