This volume presents Israeli installation artist Sigalit Landau's most recent project--a political take on ritualized eating as cultural metaphor, exhibited at Berlin's KW Institute in early 2008--alongside a comprehensive overview. The Dining Hall provokes a "truly controversial discourse of a kind rarely found in today's art," according to artforum.com.
