Picnic in a Puzzle

A Picnic Blanket Turned into a Living Artwork

This August, Vitamin Color returns to Art Biesenthal with A Picnic in a Puzzle - a seasonal lunch where every guest holds one piece of a giant artwork.

Your lunch is served on a hand-painted tray that forms one fragment of a much larger composition. Individually, each tray is an abstract artwork. Together, they assemble into one giant puzzle that comes to life throughout the day.

As guests collect their lunches, picnic throughout the garden and return their trays, the artwork is continuously dismantled and reassembled - making every visitor part of the piece.

Pick up your piece of the puzzle, enjoy a seasonal lunch, and watch the artwork take shape.
