A sensory journey at the intersection of art, food, and design
“The Art of Taste” is an immersive dinner series that unites a curated community of visionaries from the realms of art, cuisine, and design. Each edition takes place in a culturally significant location—be it an art gallery, an artist’s studio, a museum, an architectural landmark, or a collector’s private home—where the experience of dining becomes a form of artistic expression and dialogue.
The inaugural event in Paris sets the stage for the series, establishing the creative tone for future editions in Los Angeles, Miami, Tokyo, and beyond.
Join an intimate gathering of tastemakers brought together by a shared appreciation for the art of flavor and conversation.
