Food & Art | Eva Breuer Art Dealer Sydney

Food & Art
On view from Friday 26th March 2010

The representation of food has always had a presence within the realm of the visual arts. The sharing of food and drink is a communal behavior similar to the way art acts as a forum for dialogue. This collection of paintings from the gallery stock room explores the appearance of food in not only traditional still life paintings and banquet scenes but also in figurative paintings such as David Boyd’s Two Children with apple and orange and Ray Crooke’s Villagers Relaxing.
