Exhibit: Culinary Art

By JULIETTE ROSSANT How do chefs express themselves in other art forms? Well, start first with what forms of art outside of Cuisine, and one answer is not only Painting but the chance to sample some wares at a gallery opening Thursday night in Manhattan. Rossi, a New York-based humor and food writer, currently a columnist for Bust magazine -- also a bi-weekly radio host on WOMR -- also a catering chef with The Raging Skillet -- and also painter and co-founder of The Lost and Found Gallery in Crown Heights, Brooklyn -- is, in addition to these other exhibitionism-oriented tendencies ("Jewish-white-trash-deviant" is how she describes herself), curating "Culinary Art," an exhibit which opens tomorrow night, Thursday, January 12, 7:00 - 9:00 p.m: "Culinary Art," featuring Provincetown's Salvatore Del Deo and local heroes Dennis Foy, Miha Juric and Rossi herself, will be on display. "Culinary Art" runs January 12 - March 12,2006. The Artist's Room Gallery is located at 335 East Houston Street at the corner of Ridge Street in Manhattan (see map). Please note: outside of Thursday night's reception, gallery hours are by appointment only, so call (212) 463-0872. Also, next door is "the gourmet, stainless steel kitchen of The Raging Skillet catering company," so Art-inclined Foodies and Food-inclined Arties might get a two-fer with every visit.
