Tiravanija's work “is fundamentally about bringing people together.”
This installation artist is most famous for a piece called pad thai in 1990, when he through ar conventions out of the window by creating an instillation where he cooked and served food for gallery visitors.The visitors' participation in the live event was the art work, and after the visitors had gone, the remains of the meal stayed on view as evidence of the event. The food was not the art nether was the making of it, it was just a means to provoke interaction and to allow a convivial relationship between audience and artist.
