The Fair takes place in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and will serve as a meeting place for food enthusiasts from all food disciplines.
FOOD + ART + MEDIUM
Friday May 4th, 10:30am-11:30am
A panel discussion moderated by Nicole Caruth. Panelists include:
- Lisa Gross, Artist, Chairman and Founder of The Boston Tree Party
- Victoria Yee Howe, Artist
- Jennifer Rubell, Performance Artist
- Tattfoo Tan, Performance Artist
- Michael Harlan Turkell, Photographer, Heritage Radio Network Host “The Food Seen”
This panel asks the questions: Can art be eaten? Is eating an art? Food is an inspirational medium becoming increasingly more prevalent in art and performance. Food is a medium that crosses the boundaries between the mundane and the avant-garde. How are food artists using edible inspiration to change the definition of art and the definition of eating?
