  This work examines contemporary conceptions of the home through the various artistic works in which it has been portrayed. Examples featured range from the classic, patriarch-centred family ideal to contemporary feminist reconsiderations of the personal and interpersonal conditions of domestic life; from the elegant documentations of home-life in 17th and 18th-century painting, to the bizarre domestic anarchy of Paul McCarthy's kitchen performances.
