On Sunday I will take part in the talk presenting Book Recipes Artists Cooking, the book published by Corraini to which 80 artists contributed.
‘Among them,’ as Pietro Gaglianò writes, “are all of Scripta’s guests, together with beloved friends, assiduous visitors to the bookshop and its programmes, people who have passed through and who remain ever-present, together with others who have never been to BRAC but who, through virtuous or virtual ties, through friendship or affinity, form a fundamental part of its universe of art, books and words”.
For fifteen years, the BRAC bookshop in Florence has been combining good vegetarian and vegan cuisine and publishing dedicated to the languages of contemporary art. A formula that is an expression of the passions of the two owners, Sacha and Melisa: an imaginative chef specialising in vegetarian and vegan cuisine in love with comics and illustration and a bibliophile with an interest in contemporary art in all its forms of expression (art, theatre, dance, cinema, photography).
Since its opening in 2009 to date, BRAC has organised and hosted around 1,800 meetings and book presentations, and promoted and realised several festivals, events and exhibitions. This volume collects 80 recipes, born and served within BRAC, entrusted to the free interpretation of 78 contemporary artists.
