Mozzarella in carrozza: Artist Cookbook Blends Art and Cuisine

Silvia Macchetto has edited "Mozzarella in carrozza", a cookbook featuring recipes by Italian artists, published in 2017. The book pays homage to Gino De Dominicis and includes contributions from Mario Airò, Francesco Arena, Manfredi Beninati, Sarah Ciracì, Stefania Galegati Shines, Enzo Cucchi, Flavio Favelli, Marisa Merz, Luca Trevisani, and Vedovamazzei. Each artist presents a personal recipe, ranging from edible dishes to conceptual ones like Enzo Cucchi's "Zuppa di cuoio" (leather soup). The book is designed as a spiral-bound, hardcover object mimicking classic recipe books. It follows a trend of art-and-food publications by Phaidon, Electa, Corraini, and Kellermann, and earlier projects like Lucy + Jorge Orta's menus for ZegnArt and the 2014 "Personal Foodonsale" in Bologna. The volume costs €20 and has 136 pages.
