"ALL YOU EAT IS ART" FOR GISPEN / THE BARN, CHABOT MUSEUM

"ALL YOU EAT IS ART" FOR GISPEN / THE BARN, CHABOT MUSEUM














A pop-up workplace of Gispen is presented in the garden of the Chabot Museum in Rotterdam, a design of the Latvian designer Mara Skujeniece. At the time of the 5th International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam Gispen and Chabot Museum joined forces to represent a bridge to the past from a modern perspective.

Ina Boonekamp Arends of "All you eat is art” devised a Latvian welcome for the Gispen guests at the Chabot Museum. A pure natural cocktail of birch-juice / vodka / thyme and a knot cookie inspired by the work of Mara. The welcome was presented as an installation where a carousel with bobbins and threads connected the drinks and cookies, you had to cut loose before tasting. After it was time for black pudding with blueberry jam, chutney with clouds of bread, nibbles on knitted crafts, pickles on garden shovels and other Latvian-inspired tastings put together in a landscape.
