ARTJACKING (1/10)

Luncheon on the Grass or Picnic Theory

5 min

Available until 13/04/2028

Ever since Manet painted Luncheon on the Grass in 1863, dozens of artists have adopted and reworked this symbolism. Picasso charged the scene with tingling eroticism, Mickalene Thomas turned it into a political statement, and Daniel Spoerri reworked it into a warning about ecological issues.
