About this work:
En la mesa con Rossini (At Table with Rossini) is an original, carefully-documented work that shows the relationship between biography, artistic creation and the culinary tastes of a man who could have been a famous gourmet if his gastronomic talent had not been bettered by his musical genius. Here Arroyo introduces an original vision of illustration incorporating the aesthetic qualities of typographical design.In the silkscreen that accompanies the book, Eduardo Arroyo links the two sides of Rossini. With simple shapes, he creates faces that transmit the composer's double personality: facial characteristics and musical and culinary concepts change positions in order to create portraits with a clear ability to communicate. As in hieroglyphics, concepts are substituted for images which symbolise them, filling the faces with musical clefs, sardines or apples.
