Delicious: The Art of Food
Can it be? People going crazy over a painting of asparagus or a few simple lemons? That’s what it was like yesterday when I checked out the new “Delicious” exhibit at STUDIO Gallery in San Francisco's Polk Gulch neighborhood.
STUDIO started in 2003 on Polk Street and recently moved to a larger space across the street. But even the larger space could barely fit the crowds gathered for the opening reception of the Delicious exhibit. The place was packed when I arrived in the afternoon.
It probably didn't hurt that they were serving free drinks and a healthy spread of gallery munchies.
In the back busy describing his cheese spreads to art-loving foodies was Ray Bair of Cheese Plus, which is a few blocks away from the gallery. Ray offered up three types of cheese spreads that he normally sells at his stores. I loved them all, including one with ale.Here are a few shots of some of the interesting works of art on display. (All of the original art are for sale as well.)
You can view more images of the artwork from the exhibit here. Or you can just get yourself to STUDIO and catch the exhibit, which runs until April 12.
