Kitchen Stories
The Nave Gallery  •  Oct 17-Nov 15, 2008
Submission deadline: August 30

The American kitchen has evolved from a private cooking area at the
back of the house to a more public gathering place, a room of
brightness and gleaming surfaces. All along, though, the kitchen has
seen more than its share of dramatic events as family members and
friends gather, sometimes to celebrate and occasionally to clash.
Secrets have been shared over early morning cups of coffee;
confidences have been breached while dinner parties unfold nearby;
knives have been waved and frying pans wielded.

In today's kitchens, much attention is paid to appearances.
Appliances are clad in shiny industrial surfaces. Pots and pans are
hung like art objects. Designers bring their skills to bear on can
openers and toasters, stoves and backsplashes. All this provides a
rich visual backdrop for the mundane tasks that are the nominal
purpose of the kitchen. And let's not forget food! A profusion of
products from the farms, ranches, oceans and factories of the world
pass through the modern American kitchen, on their way to becoming
quick snacks or elaborate group meals.

For a show titled Kitchen Stories, the Nave Gallery seeks 2D and 3D
work that illustrates scenes and stories, personalities and products,
activities and artifacts from that room at the back of the house. For
submission details, please see
