Item Details

Visionaire No. 47 // Taste.

New York: Visionaire Publishing, 2005. Limited Edition. Stiff Boards. Visionaire, the fashion and art publication, explores the exciting world of taste. After 42 SCENT, Visionaire again teamed up with IFF to push the boundaries with 47 TASTE. Jenny Holzer suggested metal and jet fuel as the flavor of adrenaline, though ultimately IFF prevailed and a flavor was born, matched with one of Holzer’s signature text pieces. Dispensed in convenient, self-dissolving flavor strips, the resulting series of tastes includes everything from mother’s milk (Yoko Ono) and mint lemonade (Karen Kilimnik) to glue sticks (Thomas Demand) and a rare gourmet pine nut (by famed chef Ferran Adrià). The reader can join in to directly experience 12 original flavors produced exclusively for Visionaire in the form of fast-dissolving breath-strips in individually marked, custom-designed cases that correspond to images printed in an accompanying hardcover book.
Visionaire was established in 1991 with its roots in limited edition publishing which has since expanded into an experiential agency. Visionaire has been collaborating with artists, influencers, and Fortune 500 companies for over 25 years; conceptualizing and producing public art installations, film, immersive and interactive experiences, branded content, and art multiples through the lens of art, fashion, and contemporary culture.
