The Chris Ofili mid career survey at the Tate Britain reveals a sexually charged and scatalogical body of work reminiscent of Gilbert and George’s The Naked Shit Pictures .

When talking about Tule River basketry we should of course be really talking about Yokut basketry. The Yokut nation originally consisted of over sixty diverse and distinct communities, all speaking a common language and sharing the larger Yokut culture, all living within central inland California. Basketry, as with most Native American cultures, was an important element in the daily domestic life of people, and was often so intertwined with the day to day running of life that the maintenance of a fully functioning professional basketry craft base could often be a factor in the success or failure of a community.

Two important things about the preparation of meaty, tender, and juicy beef ribs: 1) Under no circumstance buy ones that have the meat between the ribs gouged out. That’s the best part ! 2) I separate into individual ribs before marinating and smoking. This allows the larger globs of fat to render out and accelerates even cooking.

I clearly remember the first time I heard about Lauri Lynnxe Murphy and her work. It was 1997 and at the time I was the Director / Curator of OneWest Art Center (now the Fort Collins Museum of Contemporary Art ). I would typically head to Denver on Saturday morning to spend the day checking out what was happening at the various galleries, museums, and art centres in the city

Does food fit into this table? Here at Khymos I aim to cover things related to food and chemistry, and as I stumbled over a periodic table of cupcakes (with clickable “elements” linked to recipes) I couldn’t resist to dig a little deeper. And look what I found! The periodic table of elements is iconic, but the periodic table has also become an organizing metaphor for all sorts of things, including food .
