Expand your cooking repertoire with 100 recipes created and illustrated by a stellar array of international contemporary artists.

Creativity doesn't stop at an artist's studio door; for many, it continues into the kitchen. For the first time, Phaidon has invited more than 70 artists to each share and illustrate a recipeβ€”the best culinary concoction they have ever invented, or an especially meaningful dish.

The result is an exciting range of contributions spanning all manner of meals and drinks, both savoury and sweet, from around the globe. These recipes are brilliantly brought to life by a wealth of sketches, photographs, collages, paintings, and personal snaps.
