Art Trade

My Role

Producer

Project Overview

"Making art doesn't put food on the table." Why are more and more artists finding themselves in this predicament? While the number of artists continues to grow and art is being created at an increasing pace, only a handful of them manage to stand out and sustain their livelihood through their work. Yet, despite the financial challenges artists face, society still relies on drawing spiritual and cultural richness from the art they create.

Our event, "Art Trade," reimagines art not as a commodity to be bought and sold, but as a form of currency that naturally integrates into daily life. This unique experience gives artists the chance to truly "live in the moment." We invite artists to submit their work in exchange for an unforgettable culinary experience, prepared by Le Cordon Bleu-trained chefs.

Additionally, this will be an extraordinary immersive painting experience, where food will take on a new role – becoming a dynamic, multidimensional artwork that fills your stomach!
