In an exhibition called Global Street Food at the Vitra Design Museum, portable kitchens from all over the world are presented.
"Art Basel attendees might want to check out Dornbracht's Global Street Food exhibition on display through Friday at the Vitra Design Museum. First shown at IMM Cologne last January, the exhibition presents improvised portable kitchens from around the world, including a Vietnamese market boat, a Sudanese tea stand, and an Argentinian charcuterie cart (yum) made from a bulletin board balanced on a shopping cart (hmm). It was curated by Mike Meiré, the Berlin-based art director of 032c magazine (of "the new ugly" movement) and Dornbracht's creative and brand director."
