Dal comunicato stampa:
Unknown
to many, Mahatma Gandhi was passionate about food. He spent half of
his life researching the ‘perfect diet’; a diet that would
nourish the growing Indian population and that could be sustained by
the nation. His books on food and nutrition, written more than 60
years ago, are full of insight (and ingredients) relevant to the
challenges of over-consumption, nutrition-less food, and obesity
faced in the developed world.
Mahatma
Thali and Claire’s Kitchen is
the culmination of a collaborative project between artist Manali
Jagtap Nyheim and Ganapati South Indian Kitchen. It is a
culinary-artistic ‘jam’: Gandhi’s ideal ingredients are used by
Ganapati South Indian Kitchen to create the “Mahatma Thali”; the
Mahatma Thali is served for the first time on 17 September (and
thereafter till 29 October) to selected guests – when the
restaurant is transformed into a typical Indian eating space; typical
Indian kitchen utensils (plates, bowls, tiffins) are transformed into
art objects – an installation prepared by the artist that also
involves sound from an ordinary Indian village kitchen; and a show of
the artist’s recent mixed media works on paper.
