Framed Contemporary Food Paintings
Food is something that we deal with every day, usually several times. This makes framed contemporary food art a beloved choice for art enthusiasts. Food presentation is important in everyday life, so it is not surprising that artistic portrayals of food bring up positive emotions for many people.
The idea of framed contemporary food art pictures has its roots in the still life, which goes back to ancient Greece and Rome. Food has always been a popular subject for still lifes. Modern food art predominantly traces influences to still lifes from the Renaissance, such as “Basket of Fruit” by sixteenth century Italian painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio. Indeed, Caravaggio is heavily influential over modern painting in general with his use of light, shadow, and contrast.
One type of framed contemporary food art pieces portrays food items, usually fruits and vegetables, in their natural unprocessed state. Frank Wilson has several paintings that show pears, such as “Pears in Blue Bowl,” “Pears,” and “Five Golden Pears.” “Two Peppers” by Diane Ziemski shows bell peppers in a variety of different colors. Alessandra Andrisani’s “Winter on the Table” portrays an array of foods associated with winter, such as mushrooms, citrus fruits, and herbs.
Other food art shows food that has been processed or prepared in some way. These pieces are often meant to evoke a particular region or culture. For instance, Dianne Parks portrays classic New Orleans dishes with “A Beignet Morning” and “Oysters on the Half Shell.” Heather Calderon combines Mexican dishes with the skeleton motif, which is common in Mexican folk art, in “El Cocinero.”
