Turner Prize winning artist Martin Creed has transformed the Gallery restaurant at London’s iconic Sketch in the first of a new long-term programme of artist-conceived restaurants at the venue. Through a series of new works both functional and decorative, Creed has created an environment that is at once as an exhibition, an artwork, a restaurant and an Events space.
Work No. 1347 consists of 96 different types of marble, in a formation of zigzagging lines across the floor, along with a series of paintings and large-scale wall paintings. Work No. 1343 is a new work specially made for the restaurant in which every single piece of cutlery, glass, chair and table is different. This work brings together a mix of the mass produced and handcrafted, from classic antiques to contemporary design from all around the world. A menu especially put together to fit the art further enhances the dizzying dining experience. There’s only one way to find out what could that mean… Bon Appetit!
