The Damien Hirst Award for Creepiest Buffet: The Rubell Collection

Hard boiled eggs.

In the Rubell Collection’s backyard, there was a trough — and I mean a trough — of hardboiled eggs served for breakfast during the gallery’s opening. Not only was the smell, um, intense, I imagine that it had the negative effect of turning those art industry types into bigger gasbags than usual.

Shovel 'em in!

People were actually eating them — using latex gloves.

Hurl.

One person, however, was not enthused by the grub on offer.

Bacon and latex gloves.

There was also a tin of bacon (of dubious provenance) surrounded by a sea of latex gloves. And the Baselistas were digging in!

Bacon and latex gloves.

Scrumptious!

Croissants

Not that sinister, but I’ll include it anyway: croissants.

  • Blimey.

    I come here for edification and what do I get, hard boiled eggs – in these quantities I believe the UN classify them a a weapon of mass distinktion

  • just wait til i put up my facelift fotos.

  • these photos are macabre! love them, nothing is quite like the rich when they feel free to roam in their natural habitats unobserved (or so they think) I posted a few amusing ones of Venice and various art fairs in my blog too ;)
