The curator as barman / photography by Antje Peters.

"Curated by The School for Curatorial Studies Venice and A plus A edited and conceived by Automatic Books and illustrated by photographer Antje Peters – The curator as barman is a publication that collects 28 artists' drink recipes, produced on the occasion of the Rob Pruitt's Flea Market in Venice. Twenty eight artists, chosen by twenty eight young curators from the School for Curatorial Studies Venice, give us instructions to prepare mixtures, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, that tell us something about them: from the simple glass of water of Rafael Rozendaal, to the Pokemon inspired drink of Michael Pybus. In The curator as barman the recipes are not confined to be reproducible only by the book's owner, they are born on the principle that the curator becomes the performer of the artist's idea. Our intent is to investigate and deepen our knowledge in this kind of relationship that is in constant change."-- From Aplusa.it
