Here's the first email I read this morning and I just had to share it:
RE: mess in the freezer
Team,
It is with a heavy
heart that I announce that it has come time for us to bid adieu to the
site-specific installation known to us simply as Untitled, heretofore located in the
freezer. A brave work, innovatively rendered in the surprising combined media
of aluminum and frozen high fructose corn syrup, the sculpture rendered by an
anonymous artist has finished its engagement with us and has moved on to
continue its 17-country/53-city tour. I know I am not alone when I say that I
will miss Untitled’s visceral
appeal, its capture of guilt and apprehension abroad in a post-millennial
wasteland of kitchen appliances. Accompanying its departure are the collections
of vintage ice cream as well as the cunning, baffling piece, Glass with Fudge Swirl. Of course, our
permanent displays of ice packs and Mega Pizza Rolls will remain with us for the
foreseeable future. Also, I would like to remind everyone that the brilliant,
joyous Rainbow Sherbet is still
available for viewing in our New Arrivals section.
Yours in Art,
Food
Dana
Wish I had a 'Before' picture to accompany this, but here's the 'After':
