UNIX Gallery presents Foodhist Temple, a sanctuary of food sculptures by artist Peter Anton. The solo exhibition is on view at UNIX Gallery, 532 W 24th St. New York, NY, from April 2 – May 9, 2015. Peter Anton is known for his uncanny ability to create art that can lure, charm, tease, disarm and surprise. He uses new sculpture techniques and materials to alter and overstate foods to give them new, delicious meanings. Anton employs humor, scale, irony, and intensity to make foods aesthetically pleasing and seductive in atypical ways. Viewers are faced with concepts of necessity and desire, stimulated by his subject matter. “The temple will be a place of meditation, peace, and happiness – a shrine devoted to the celebration of food and life,” says Anton, whose larger-than-life, mixed-media sculptures of delectable sweets and savory foods will be displayed at various altars stationed throughout the gallery.
