“When I was your age, I used to treat the crust like it was just there to hold the good stuff in. I used to leave the whole back end of it on the plate. As I got older, I learned to appreciate the crust.” EndsWholeAgeUsedStuffAppreciateTreatsPlates Author:Mandy Patinkin
“I wish that restaurateurs would choose simpler and smaller glassware. The tables on restaurants these days are way too crowded, and mostly because the plates are too odd looking and big, and the wine glasses are so gigantic that it takes up the whole surface area and you can't move. I prefer smaller glassware.” WayWholeBigsMovingWishAreasTablesWineGlassesSurfaceThese DaysOddRestaurantsPlatesCrowdedWine Glass Author:Geoffrey Zakarian
“Promenade was totally driven by the context. The internal relationships of measurement and placement related to the central axis of the site. The placement of the rectangular plates followed a strict logic in that the plates tilted away and towards the center line in an asymmetrical counterpoint. However, the perception of the sculpture contradicts the logic of its relation to the site. As you walk inbetween the plates you see fragments, you see the work in part, you cannot grasp the whole.” WholeLinesWalksPerceptionLogicRelationDrivenRelatedInternalsPlatesSiteStrictSculptureFragmentsMeasurementAxesPlacementPromenade Author:Richard Serra
