Food poetry

Foreword

In 1982, the André Malraux community arts centre of Reims (now deceased) suggested me imagining a project of unique book. I conceived it and I accompanied it with some photos and with an estimate of realization. The estimate was considered too expensive and the project stayed non-realised. Twenty four years later, a very banal stay in a supermarket reminds this project to me. It becomes a reality here and now. It takes a different shape but it stay in the same frame of mind.
Christian Soulignac August, 2006
