Luncheon on the Grass

"Luncheon on The Grass" fusion of historical, contemporary and personal imagery, and its references to traditional, vanguard and popular culture connect with current artistic practice. As Manet did with Le Déjeuner sur l’herbe, some of the most provocative contemporary painting collapses the historical and the contemporary onto the same plane. Artists are now combining the real, the unreal, the personal and the universal to create their own visions of artistic truth.
