Item Gastronomy in the Gallery(Fenwick Gallery, George Mason University Libraries, July 2015) Rinalducci, Jenna; Sheehan, Sarah; Irvin, Sarah; Cushman, Robin Bachtler; Carman, Carissa; Hooker, GretchenFrom the ubiquitous red and white checks of Better Homes & Gardens New Cook Book to the amazing photography found in Modernist Cuisine, cookbooks are so much more than a collection of recipes. Cookbooks provide insight into a culture, a region, a time period or a cuisine. They are timeless and completely outdated, often at the same time. Sometimes they are not even books. Highlighting the unique collection of cookbooks, Gastronomy in the Gallery is a brief tour of this distinctive cultural and social art form. The resources featured in the exhibit come from the circulation collection, rare and historical items from Special Collections & Archives, and the growing artists’ books collection of the University Libraries. We hope this exhibit inspires, educates, and even leaves you a bit hungry.
