Picnic Utopic du 3 juin au 30 septembre 2005 Galery Fraîch’Attitude in Paris

Picnic Utopic : A surreal meal


Ever had a picnic surrounded by “art”? Didn’t think so. The Fraich’Attitude gallery encourages you to do just that with its latest showing “Picnic Utopic”.
Our menu consisted of yummy sandwiches and a cheesy tart, followed by Tiramisu and cherries, all from Lafayette Gourmet (um, except the cherries).
Surrounded by multicoloured plastic and grass growing up the walls, we spread out our tablecloth and got chomping, much to the bewilderment of people coming through the gallery. Galerie Fraîch’Attitude
It’s a small, collective exhibition, with lots of nature and food, both colourful and amusing, and perfect for a family with kids – everyone can get something out of it.
We tried plying people with our champagne, but no-one wanted any; apparently art – even food-based art – is to be savoured sober.
The whole thing was finished off with a sharp coffee at De La Ville Café just down the road, where people-watching was endlessly entertaining (trout lips on women and LOTS of very dark sunglasses).
A surreal meal and comic coffee, for an offbeat Saturday afternoon!
