Ferran Adria Symposium @MOCACleveland Simulcast @CWRU

Food Origins

Mon 11/17 @9-11AM

There’s an unusual exhibit right now at the Cleveland Museum of Contemporary Art. Called Notes on Creativity, it features the artwork of groundbreaking Spanish chef Ferran Adrià and explores its role in both the philosophy and practice of his work in the kitchen.

To accompany the exhibit, which is on view through 1/18/15, MOCA and the Institute for Science Origins are cosponsoring at symposium at MOCA called Food: Origins, Innovation, Imagination. Chef Adrià and three other authorities on the history and the science and technology of food will have a roundtable discussion culinary creativity and innovation, the history of food, and the science and technology of cooking. He’ll be joined by food historian and author of 35 books Felipe Fernández-Armesto; Rachel Laudan, author of Cuisine and Empire: Cooking in World History; and Dan Jurafsky, a Stanford professor of linguistics and computer science, who wrote The Language of Food: A Linguist Reads the Menus.

Afterwards, those attending the event at MOCA will be able to have copies of books by all the participants signs and to visit the exhibit.

There are a limited number of $50 tickets to attend the symposium live. But it will also be live streamed to the Thwing Center Ballroom on the Case Western Reserve campus. Tickets are $5.
