A new style of pairing Fine Art, Fine Food & Fine Cocktails.
Thursday, August 15, 2013 – 7:00pm
Back Dining Room at
The Continental – Old City, Philadelphia 138 Market St., Philadelphia, PA 19106
The creative minds behind “Indy Hall Arts” and “Second Saturday Synesthesia” are debuting their newest artistic delight, “Art on the Menu.” Spend an evening with three artists – one fine artist, one master chef, and one mixologist – as they collude to overwhelm your senses. Take in an exclusive fine art collection while enveloped in the scent and taste of dishes and drinks specifically imagined to enhance the experience of the art that surrounds you.
The inaugural event, held at Continental, Old City, is anchored by the unveiling of Philadelphia artist Sean Martorana’s latest collection – a stunning display of 15 new works, deeply inspired by the Old Masters of the Renaissance and Baroque periods in Europe. The series embodies royalty, beauty, sacrifice, war, opulence, and drama frozen in fluid moments of time. Continental Executive Chef Nick Rada has created three remarkable dishes – modern interpretations of cuisine of the 15th and 16th centuries – that bring you back to Europe’s emergence from the Middle Ages and into a new age of art and discovery. Finally, Kevin Farrell will be offering guests inspirited libations – “Blood & Tears,” “Corpse Reviver,” and “Purple Velvet” – that masterfully celebrate Sean’s art and Chef Nick’s creations.
To immortalize the artistic spirit of the evening, guests will receive a signature food and drink recipe card as well as a special, limited edition, signed and customized print. No two will be identical, and these prints will never be made available to the general public.
Sean, Kevin, and Nick will discuss their inspirations as their creations are viewed, served, and tasted. They will also be on hand to delight in one on one conversations with guests about their collaborative artistry.
