Fruit, vegetables, coffee cups, wine glasses, kitchen utensils, chefs with laughably large toques and roosters are some of the images that appear when you search ‘kitchen art’ on just about any poster/art website. Why? Who said that that’s what constitutes art appropriate for the kitchen?
Okay, maybe a traditional, literal interpretation of still life with dispatched fish or game might not be that appetizing to display over your eating area…..
…..but roosters? What’s appetizing about a rooster? Especially a live one? Yeah, I know, top ‘o the mornin’, cock-a-doodle-doo, blah, blah, blah, but why can’t kitchen art be, you know, just art? If you’ve read this far, you can probably tell where I come down on the subject. How about you? Yes to themed kitchen art or not?
