CONFECTIONS BY AMY STEVENS

Amy Stevens' confections started out as part of a "turning 30" project: make 30 cakes to photograph for her thesis show. It wasn't long before the artist realized that striving for iced perfection didn't come naturally and decided to aim for exuberance instead. Stevens' cakes are loud displays of sugar and spice and everything ... well, just everything. Cake dec gone bad is a vibrant strike against the shrines to domestic living, done extravagantly, indulgently well. The selection shown here is recent; delve back into the earlier ones for less refined versions. More is more.

Eating the Universe- Food in Art

«Eat Art, a term coined by Daniel Spoerri for art made with and involving food, has its institutionalized origins in Düsseldorf. Two years after opening his restaurant at the Burgplatz, the Swiss artist founded the Eat Art Gallery in 1970 and inspired numerous artists to produce various editions made of edible materials and food wastes. The exhibition “Eating the Universe” — a title created in the 1970's by Peter Kubelka, former professor for Film and Cooking at the Frankfurt Städelschule, for a TV-show about cooking as an artistic genre — takes generous stock of the phenomena from today's perspective and traces the original character of eat art from its origins until today. The exhibition demonstrates the continuing great attraction of the topic of food as a fundamental interface of art and life and its enormous relevance until the present day, especially against the backdrop of issues such as affluence and hunger, the anti-consumerism and anti-globalization movements, modern dietetics and cooking shows, health crazes and fast food. »

naturezas mortas

Género de pintura em que se representam seres inanimados, como frutas, flores, livros, objectos.

Arte de pintar, desenhar, fotografar composições ou objectos inanimados.

Comumente utilizado no preparo de pratos de culinária.

«Na pintura inúmeras naturezas mortas veêm do minimalismo por exemplo Chardin, pinta a vida silênciosa em particular a sua mesa 'verre d'eau et cafetière' ou ainda Cézanne e as maças.

Mais do que uma banalidade é um misto de uma cena elaborada é uma arte do comum»

e pensar-mos então numa grande parte do trabalho de Arcimboldo..
