Spaghetti Restaurant Opens Saturday November 30th from 6—10 PM and Sunday December 1 from 5—7PM. Spaghetti with tomato sauce is available only during these times. Seating is first come first serve, no reservations, patrons will be seated individually as a seat becomes available.
Spaghetti Restaurant is the next chapter of an ongoing project by artist Lydia Rosenberg that experiments with writing an ongoing novel-as-sculpture. Rosenberg transforms the storefront space of Basketshop into a setting that depicts a theme of the novel in which the characters eat a plate of spaghetti. While their individual experiences with this familiar nourishment are distinct, a noodled vision of each character’s inner state finds a connective link within this inconsistent metaphorical device. In Spaghetti Restaurant, Rosenberg, with the help of husband and chef Jared Miller, proposes a scenario in which all of the characters (written and yet to be written) can sit down alone to have a spaghetti experience simultaneously.
