London: You Used to Call Me on My Cell Phone by The Gramounce

The Gramounce Supper Club presents the millennial dining experience ‘You Used to Call Me on My Cell Phone’ at The Other Art Fair London King’s Cross from 4-7 July 2019.

You Used to Call Me on my Cell Phone is a dining experience exploring notions of millennial capitalism, voluntary invigilance and Instagram. The Gramounce will cook you the most googled recipe and your favourite influencer’s meal. A vegan tasting menu for the young and yoga, for the short focused and down scrollers. You used to call me on my cell phone, late night when you need my love.

The Gramounce is a supper club that establishes the meal as a new display context to access contemporary art. The guest’s attention is choreographed to better engage with the work shown. We organise dinners where an artist is commissioned to exhibit under the idea of the supper as an exhibition. We use cooking as a practice based research process. The Gramounce is run by artists Nora Silva and Finn Thomson. It was born out of art collective MilesKm as a fundraiser in 2014.
