Crave: Penelope Gottlieb, The Night the Forest Spoke

Crave: Penelope Gottlieb, The Night the Forest Spoke

 

An innovative and dynamic form of cultural hospitality, Crave: Art, Food, & Social Experience comprises a series of artist-orchestrated, themed meals in collaboration with local chefs known for their distinctive culinary styles. Now more than ever, the politics of how and what we eat are ripe to be examined through the artistic lens.  Crave is a series with elements of sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell represented throughout the evening.  The evening is meant to produce intimate exchanges between culinary and visual nourishment.

 

With elements of sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell coming together to produce intimate exchanges between culinary and visual nourishment, Santa Barbara-based artist Penelope Gottlieb creates the second iteration of the 2014 Crave season with The Night the Forest Spoke.  Gottlieb will produce an earthly delight with flora-inspired dishes and cocktails blended with her unique, artistic sensibility. Gottlieb will be working with head chef Justin West of Julienne to create a divine menu for this one night only experience.

About

Small Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara (MCASB), formerly the Contemporary Arts Forum (CAF), is a non-profit, non-collecting institution dedicated to exhibiting the highest quality of contemporary art while recognizing "the artists of tomorrow," and was founded in 1976 by artists and art supporters seeking a venue dedicated solely to contemporary art. What once began as a grassroots, artist-run organization with nominal funding now serves as the leading contemporary arts presenter in Central California. MCASB offers its innovative education and exhibition programming to the region primarily free of charge. There is no admission fee because MCASB believes that the arts should be accessible to all audiences of all persuasions. MCASB advances creativity and inspires critical thinking through meaningful engagement with the art of our time.
