The Kitchen Studio - Culinary Creations by Artists is a thoroughly delightful book exploring aesthetic expression through the culinary imagination and creativity of a collection of international contemporary artists. It's packed with an array of exciting personal recipes presented in the artists' own words and images. Creativity isn't confined to a studio - for many, it spills straight into the kitchen. More than 70 artists, including Ghada Amer, Jimmie Durham, Studio Olafur Eliasson, Subodh Gupta, Nikolai Haas, Jeppe Hein, Carsten Höller, Dorothy Iannone, Ragnar Kjartansson, John Lyons, Philippe Parreno, Nicolas Party, Zina Saro-Wiwa, Tiffany Sia and Rirkrit Tiravanija, were invited to share and illustrate their own recipes, each turning into a uniquely expressive dish. The result is an exciting spread covering every kind of meal and drink, sweet and savoury, drawn from cuisines the world over and brought to life through an imaginative mix of sketches, photographs, collages, paintings and personal images. Many of the culinary creations included can be pulled off by adventurous home cooks, but the pages hold an incredibly varied range of dishes, from the conceptual to the personal, the elaborate to the simple, the sweet to the savoury, and from the serious to the funny and downright bizarre (though sadly no recipe for Dalí's Lobster Phone). With an introduction by the globally celebrated - and famously self-assured - chef and art enthusiast Massimo Bottura, this is an exciting and entertaining gift for food lovers and contemporary art fans alike. Double the nerdiness and twice as pretentious, with plenty of (carbon-filtered) water for the mill for anyone who already thinks we at The Kitchen Lab can be a bit too fancy for our own good!
