Alfredo Jaar
Guess who is coming to dinner
1988
"Guess Who Is Coming to Dinner" is a conceptual artwork by Chilean artist Alfredo Jaar that engages with themes of immigration, belonging, and social inequality through its provocative title and installation components. The work typically combines photography, text, and architectural elements to prompt viewers to confront their own assumptions and prejudices about otherness and inclusion. Jaar's practice characteristically uses accessible visual language to address urgent political and humanitarian concerns, making the personal dimensions of global issues viscerally apparent to audiences.
