Does anyone make a cookbook recipe that isn't accompanied by a photo?
Join food historian and art school graduate Sarah Lohman to explore the world of food photography. She’ll show how imagery has changed our relationship with cookbooks forever, starting with the earliest drawn diagrams of elaborate feasts. We'll trace the parallel words of food photography as art and food photography as illustration, before the two come together to create the visceral genre of food porn. Then, we'll explore the lifestyle-documentary style of food imagery in the late 20th century and address how Instagram changed the food world. How does imagery affect our perspective on what is delicious? In this class, we'll find the answers.
