Acerca del libro
Often, we don't take the time to look around at these places when we're in them; we're busy with the important business of eating.
I was intrigued by the diverse nature of public eating places and that the way they were composed said volumes about the kind of eating which was expected to take place there: eating inside or eating outside, eating food that's fancy or food that's plain, having a meal or having dessert, eating quickly or eating leisurely, eating together with friends, with strangers, or eating alone.

Acerca del creador
One Week One Book is an experimental series created by artist Stephen Schaub in 2013. Each book was conceived of, executed, and sent to print in the course of a single week. A total of twelve books were made in the series. Documentary in style, they combine a visual wit with a strong aesthetic sensibility. Artist Stephen M. Schaub's works have been described as "art dreaming about itself." In them, rather than experiencing a literal place or a linear story, we encounter something akin to the fragmentation of an emotional memory- or the illogic of a dream. Depicting scenes of unresolved narrative, these images seem to have been subjected to the vagaries of perception and the passage of time. Schaub is an innovator whose works defy classification. In his Vermont studio he combines monumentality of scale with light-sensitive techniques and the presentation of works on paper, to create each singular, unique work of art.
