Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A Mouth Full: The Re-Cookbook takes the archetypal cookbook beyond images of food and recipes that make your mouth water. It's a prototype for rethinking what a cookbook evokes and what it can become-a place where the mind can wander through memories of food, recipes, people, and places that make us who we are.The book concept is a reification of the cookbook and a book of art, photographs, posters, and ephemera centered around two artists and colleagues conversations about family, food, and recipes fused together with memories and the places they came from. As the artists/colleagues examined the evolution of their personal collections-from the clippings, award-winning heirlooms, homespun recipe booklets, to Internet screen grabs-they found relationships to time and space, embedded essences, deep connections, and well-to be perfectly frank-someone to listen to their stories of special occasions, awkward holidays, and family drama, and more. One's memories include a cardboard box salvaged from some gift filled with a random selection of clipped recipes. For the other, recipes and images of winners in 1950's bake-off cookbooks have inspired projects where family secrets and financial gain are traded and revealed.A Mouth Full: The Re-Cookbook is designed and produced by Criscola's design studio, Criscola Design, and is published in partnership as the imprint OctoberWorks.
