Art Press 2 Issue 10: Gastronomy, Wine, Art

The 10th issue of Art Press 2, titled 'Gastronomie, vin, art' (August/September/October 2008), explores intersections between food, wine, and contemporary art. Edited by Richard Leydier, the issue features an editorial on cross-disciplinary approaches. The 'À boire' section includes essays on the power of taste, wine beyond grapes, the singularity of Domaine Gramenon, and an aesthetic essay on wine by Jules Chauvet. It also covers a blind tasting with Nicolas Boulard and art at wine estates. The 'À manger' section examines avant-garde cuisine, an interview with Ferran Adrià by Sébastien Planas, culinary art as authorship politics by Nicolas Bourriaud, everyday monuments by Jean-Claude Ribaut, and militant gourmet publishing by Jean-Paul Rocher. Patrick Guns' 'My Last Meals' is also featured. 'Goodies Portraits' profiles Raquel Carena & Philippe Pinoteau (Le Baratin), Daniel Rose (Spring), Katsumi Ishida (En Mets Fais ce qu'il te Plaît), and Rodolphe Paquin (Le Repaire de Cartouche). Reviews cover Paul Bocuse, Le Pré Catelan, and Le Transversal. The issue concludes with a bibliography and addresses.
