The best of British art, design, and food are gathering under one roof this month thanks to a new event at Sotheby\u2019s.\nIn conjunction with the auction house\u2019s Modern British & Irish Art Week (17 \u2013 24 November), acclaimed chef Stevie Parle and esteemed designer Tom Dixon will revive their...
will revive their plant-filled pop-up, Joy at Sotheby’s, at its New Bond Street location, but this time with the addition of some very special British artworks decorating the space.
Speaking about the menu, Parle says, ‘It’s a really incredible time of year to be cooking some special meals. I want to make the most perfect risotto with a deep, delicious chicken broth, finish it with yellow Kentish jersey butter and three-year-old Parmesan, and cover it with white truffles brought directly from the nose of Fellipe – the Lagotto Romagnolo truffle dog in Umbria – to Sotheby’s.’
With his trademark flair for rarely used ingredients, Parle will also be baking almost extinct apple varieties into delectable desserts, with fragrant quince from the national fruit collections at Brogdale, Kent. ‘I’ve recently found a new egg farmer and his eggs somehow taste even better than those of my own chickens,’ says Parle. ‘They warrant a delicious nutmeg custard tart with some prunes soaked in Julian Timperley’s ten-year-old cider brandy.
‘Modern British is something both me and Stevie can buy into,’ says Dixon about the collaboration. ‘It exists in contemporary design and food culture right now, so there’s a hook that’s fairly obvious.’ While Sotheby’s promotes ’what is rare, or unique in paintings and‘I think what we do sits really well in the British modern sensibility,’ adds Parle.
