Response to Dongjoon’s post of unit 4.

You have made good point about how “dishes are mainly made through transforming normal materials to beautiful piece of works”.  I agree with you about the recreating is an important aspect of considering food as art. This process is highly similar to the process of making art works. For example, sculpture. However, I am not quit sure if we should consider about the taste of food when when talk about food as art, it is more likely to ask if someone dislike oil paintings, this person could not have aesthetic reaction towards oil paintings, is this type of painting not art for him?  For example, we saw the “fast presentation” the fast food could be tasting good for some people because they have the chemical seasoning, which may make the taste good for someones, but not many people would like to say fast food is art. I think food can be art, but we should see more  meanings of food rather than what do we see, what do we smell and wheat do we taste.
