VB52

On the occasion of her retrospective exhibition at the Castello di Rivoli, Beecroft created the performance VB52, structured as a banquet for thirty guests. The video of the performance shows the meal, comprised of foods selected according to color and served in a sequence of monochromatic arrangements. The images also linger on the behaviour of the guests, examining the close relationship with food that characterizes the artist’s early work. A soundtrack includes passages of classical music.
