a culinary installation of
HUGH HAYDEN
and
ZACH HEINZERLING's
film
Hugh The Hunter


organized by Paulina Bebecka

August 12, 2015, 6:30 - 9:00 pm



On the occasion of the Glorious Twelfth, aka the first day of grouse hunting season in the United Kingdom, Postmasters Gallery presents a culinary installation of Hugh Hayden and Zach Heinzerling's short film Hugh the Hunter, which was premiered at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival in the Narrative Shorts Section.

Hugh the Hunter explores the anthropomorphization of nature in Hugh Hayden's artwork as a way of looking at ourselves. Hayden will heighten this moment of self-reflection through a multi-sensory experience created with the culinary team of Ghetto Gastro, D'Artagnan and Glenfiddich as a "chicken n' waffles" remix of the traditional combination of "roasted grouse with bread sauce and game chips."
