Description

In this limited edition artist’s book, the housewives, food, textile patterns, and typography in this faux-1950s cookbook might belong to another era, but it reflects cultural norms that still prevail. Ghastly food images from the 1950s accompany “recipes” that describe universal aspects of relationships. http://www.navaatlasart.com/featured/secret-recipes-for-the-modern-wife/ (accessed 6/29/15)
