"George Slays the Dragon" is an installation piece by French artist Benoit Maire, created in 2016. The artwork features a large wooden table, reminiscent of a butcher's block, with a single red ball resting upon it. The table is placed in a white gallery space with two abstract paintings hanging on the walls. Maire's work often explores themes of everyday objects, their functions, and their potential for symbolic meaning. This piece, with its stark simplicity and the unexpected presence of the red ball, invites viewers to contemplate the nature of power and violence.
