MATTA CLARK : FOOD restaurants

Brine Shrimp


At one dinner performance, Matta-Clark served live brine shrimp swimming in broth in the middle of a halved, cooked egg white. “Some nonartist customers were furious and claimed there should be a law against us”. “We told them guest chef days were no holds barred days and they could leave if they wished. So they did.”
