Food and Theatre on the World Stage

Author: Dorothy Chansky,Ann Folino White

Publisher: Routledge

ISBN: 1317618017

Category: Performing Arts

Page: 202

Putting food and theatre into direct conversation, this volume focuses on how food and theatre have operated for centuries as partners in the performative, symbolic, and literary making of meaning. Through case studies, literary analyses, and performance critiques, contributors examine theatrical work from China, Japan, India, Greece, Italy, France, Germany, England, the United States, Chile, Argentina, and Zimbabwe, addressing work from classical, popular, and contemporary theatre practices. The investigation of uses of food across media and artistic genres is a burgeoning area of scholarly investigation, yet regarding representation and symbolism, literature and film have received more attention than theatre, while performance studies scholars have taken the lead in examining the performative aspects of food events. This collection looks across dramatic genres, historical periods, and cultural contexts, and at food in all of its socio-political, material complexity to examine the particular problems and potentials of invoking and using food in live theatre. The volume considers food as a transhistorical, global phenomenon across theatre genres, addressing the explosion of food studies at the end of the twentieth century that has shown how food is a crucial aspect of cultural identity.

The Photographer's Cookbook

Page: 160

In the late 1970s, the George Eastman House approached a group of photographers to ask for their favorite recipes and food-related photographs to go with them, in pursuit of publishing a cookbook. Playing off George Eastman's own famous recipe for lemon meringue pie, as well as former director Beaumont Newhall's love of food, the cookbook grew from the idea that photographers' talent in the darkroom must also translate into special skills in the kitchen. The recipes do not disappoint, with Robert Adams's Big Sugar Cookies, Ansel Adams's Poached Eggs in Beer, Richard Avedon's Royal Pot Roast, Imogen Cunningham's Borscht, William Eggleston's Cheese Grits Casserole, Stephen Shore's Key Lime Pie Supreme, and Ed Ruscha's Cactus Omelet, to name a few. The book was never published, and the materials have remained in George Eastman House's collection ever since. Now, forty years later, this extensive and distinctive archive of untouched recipes and photographs are published in The Photographer's Cookbook for the first time. The book provides a time capsule of contemporary photographers of the 1970s--many before they made a name for themselves--as well as a fascinating look at how they depicted food, family, and home, taking readers behind the camera and into the hearts, and stomachs of some of photography's most important practitioners.

Contemporary Color in the Landscape

Top Designers, Inspiring Ideas, New Combinations

Author: Andrew Wilson

Publisher: Timber Press

ISBN: 0881929964

Category: Gardening

Page: 280

Color is the first and most important design choice a garden designer makes. Over the past decade, landscape architects and garden designers have moved away from the more sedate shades commonly found in traditional gardens and have used plants and hardscape to experiment with explosions of color. From the layered and textural colors of Piet Oudolf to the high contrast colors of Tom Stuart Smith, this increased focus on color is a trademark of today's leading designers. Contemporary Color in the Landscape explores the whole spectrum of color: how we perceive and respond to color, how to design with color, how to manipulate contrast and create intensity with saturation, how to maximize impact by minimizing color, how to find your own personal color combinations, and how color is viewed in nature. In gorgeous, color-drenched photos Andrew Wilson showcases the work of leading garden designers as inspiring examples of the way color is used. Innovative gardens from all over the world help the reader visualize the core color lessons throughout the book. Supported by more than 300 stunning photographs, Contemporary Color in the Landscape integrates cutting-edge designers, their landscapes, color theory, new design ideas, and gorgeous photography into one inspirational, instructional, and must-have guide for design professionals.

The Gourmet's Beer Cookbook

Author: Thomas Horne

Publisher: Die Gestalten Verlag-DGV

ISBN: 9783899555646

Category: Beer

Page: 176

Good beer is a taste-intensive and surprisingly versatile accompaniment to good food--often better suited than wine. This book presents rescipes and fundamentals that explore the pairing of food and beer. Until recently, beer had been grossly underestimated as an accompaniment to sophisticated cuisine. But the booming craft beer movement is now sparking a fundamental shift. Diversity in aroma and nuance in flavor make these enw beers a wonderful complement to food--at times even better and more original than wine. The Gourmet's Beer Cookbook shows what an extensive, vibrant, and interesting role beer can play in the dining experience. Aside from an introduction into the culture and flavors of craft beer, this book presents recipes from innovative chefs to create deliciously adventurous food and beer pairings. These include tarte flambee with green asparagus to be served with Flemish red beer and saddle of veal with vanilla carrots and potato medallions to be served with pilsner. Desserts too can be coupled with the right beer for a unique taste experience, as with plum pancakes garnished with wheat beer zabaglione and served with wheat beer itself. Beer is not only for drinking. Used as an ingredient, it can provide dishes with the perfect seasoning. But when a strong companion for a meal is needed, a beer's spices and hoppy character make it an excellent choice. It can work as a harmonious complement to a dish or provide it with a surprising contrast, remaining distinct while not overshadowing any flavors. As an extension to our recent release Barley & Hops, The Gourmet's Beer Cookbook is a book for all who enjoy good food and drink, like to cook, and are enthusiastic about new taste experiences.
