Author Description

Get in touch with your tongue. After the overwhelming success of Visionaire No. 42: Scent, the editors explore another realm of the senses to bring you Visionaire No. 47: Taste. Here, leading artists, such as Jenny Holzer, Yoko Ono, Maurizio Cattelan and Bruce Weber, as well as other accomplished cultural figures, like chef Ferran Adria and rock star Elton John, team with the professional flavorists of the International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF) company to break new ground in the exploration of taste. 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. IFF is a leading creator and manufacturer of tastes and smells, the instigator of sensory experiences both everyday and extraordinary. Some 70 flavorists and 80 perfumers in 34 countries work with the company to create flavors and fragrances for everything from vanilla ice cream to the world's most legendary perfumes. This limited edition of 4,000 numbered copies comes in an innovative and eye-catching package as one can always expect from Visionaire.
