The exhibition contains a selection of artists’ cookbooks, recipes, and food scores from 1945–2019. Readers will find recipe ideas—practical, delicious, humorous, pointed—for every course. Some projects approach cooking and art making as an act of radical hospitality, others draw attention to the hidden creativity of domestic labor, others share their embodied joy of eating. Themes include: At the Genetically Modified Table; Chewing on Globalization; The Memory of Dinners Past; The Art of Food Illustration; A Recipe of Romance & Heartache; Second Wave Feminism and the Terrain of the Kitchen; The Artwork Is and Is Not Really About the Food; Artists and Writers, Combine and Stir. *This exhibition will be traveling to the Venice Public Library Dec. 3-30, 2019.* *** The Center also releases its seventh title in the Exhibition Takeaways series: *Process-ing History: The Photobook and the Archive*.
