Andrew Lampert

Whitney Museum of American Art, New York

Synonym for Untitled


sintesi del comunicato stampa

Inspired by the Whitney's offices, storage spaces, shop, and its restaurant, Untitled, artist Andrew Lampert presents an immersive evening of live performance and culinary invention. In Lampert's words, the evening will be an earnest attempt to forge a new model for museum-going that, at long last, acknowledges the cafe' and bookstore as primary components of an audience's experience. A dinner-length experiment, 'Synonym for Untitled' is built around a tasting menu specially prepared by Chef Chris Bradley. Lampert created a grocery list/score for Bradley that makes associative pairings between artists in the Whitney's collection and ingredients (Ed Ruscha is butter, Robert Mapplethorpe a jalapeno pepper). Neither a reality show nor dinner theater, the event features contributions from poet Monica de la Torre, cellist Okkyung Lee, and violinist C. Spencer Yeh. Expect multi-sensory stimulation and simultaneity galore. Located at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Untitled is a new restaurant from Danny Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group, offering a contemporary, farm-to-table take on the classic Manhattan coffee shop and the seasonal comfort food of Executive Chef Chris Bradley (formerly of Gramercy Tavern). Entry to the performance is free with Museum admission. Restaurant seating is first-come, first-served, and will begin at 5:45 pm and continue until 8:15 pm. All food and drink are additional costs.
