GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER TOO? 2017/2023
"Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner Too?" is a transformative community art project launched in 2017, offering a critical lens on Judy Chicago's iconic "The Dinner Party" (1979). This installation features a large triangular dining table that symbolizes and honors Black women and women of color, recognizing their vital contributions as 'heroines of resistance' in the fight against injustice. In its latest iteration, developed in the summer of 2021 for four prominent Dutch museums, the project expanded to include 60 remarkable women, with the flexibility to showcase them across four separate triangular tables, allowing each museum to highlight 15 inspiring figures. This evolving work invites viewers to reflect on the importance of representation and the stories of those who have historically been overlooked.
