I've seen a pizza-born recreation of the Mona Lisa. I've seen beautiful landscapes expressed in peperoni and Italian sausage. And I'd like it in 30 minutes. This would entail a specialty pizza franchise equipped with mechanical topping sorting and placing machines. Machines with a template for many
modern works of art. Each delivery region would have a different spread of art to choose from. Either call-in or order online, a spittin' image of the Virgin Mary depicted with extra cheese and olives. Delivered hot and fresh in 30 minutes or so. Delivery drivers can dress to their taste as artists, classical or modern alike.

Inspired by lunch, no doubt... Now I'm getting hungry, but in a very artistic kind of way. + |
|
|
I have some leftovers, and you're more than welcome to them ... |
|
|
I find your art simply ravishing + |
|
|
[po] Of course, garlic bread. Maybe buffalo wings soon too ... |
|
|
Buffalo wing sculpture. Ooh this could be hot! |
|
|
Fort, sculpture - thats the magic word to her heart! |
|
|
Is it "sculpture" or "buffalo wings"? |
|
|
Someone needs to help me out here. Did we ever have an idea called 'Pizzart'?. I swear blind that [po] put a link up to a pizza with a face on it but I can't remember. I also think that colourblindness came in somewhere. Can't find a thing about it now. Hmmmm! |
|
|
Like I said, I've SEEN it done before. Just make a specialty pizza chain that puts out various art creations on-demand. |
|
|
But I don't think the mechanical
topping sorting and placing
machines are necessary. There are
so many passable artists in the
representational arena
(underemployed ones at that!)
There might be some training
required but like flower arranging
close enough is probably good
enough for the business to work. |
|
|
In the machine-less version I am
pitching there would be room for
the occasional superstars to
breakout in the pizza decorating
arena perhaps at the annual
DecoPizza Festivals? Which
reminds me, this needs a name... |

Frameizza
Artizza!
Nope... Anyone else? |
|
|
Boxes should have frames printed
on them with option to bust out
the center of the box for
presentation. Alternately the crust
should get a frame like treatment. |
|
|
The one downside I can think of is
the shapes of the pieces. The
conventional folks will not like the
crazy angles square and rectangle
pizzas would get cut into. But to
that I say, "Screw 'em!" </

|
Someone color smart should list a
bunch of standard ingredients in
color wheel mode for reference, |
|
|
Bravo, DadMan ... all good points ... |
|
|
How about the Mad Magazine version of this - you devour the center pieces of pie, colapse the two ends together and reveal the secret picture. |
|
|
Don't worry [lbaf], I'm with you. I just thought I remembered something about a pizza with a face on it. + |
|
|
Or make your own Mona Lisa Pizza. Like paint-by-numbers, only with pepperoni and onions ... |
|
|
Ta, [k_sra]. I thought that I was losing it for a minute!. I must have missed it on my pizza trawl last night!. |
|
|
Can i get a pizza portrait of my nemesis and eat him? |
|
|
With food coloring in the chease, you could do this on chease pizzas! |
|
|
(Gnomethang) I thought is was a Farmer John idea. |
|
|
I suppose eventually, the technique would come along to upload your picture online and have it made into pizza ... for an extra fee, of course ... |
|
|
Nice, lbaf. I especially like the self-portrait twist. |
|
|
Selling them could get a little aggressive, though. "You want a pizza me?" |
|
|
Or - "I ate his face with extra olives and a fine chianti." |
|
|
Pizzas will come uncut. Freedom to have pizza pieces just as abstract as your piping hot pizza masterpiece - and so conventional radial cutting doesn't distort the image ... |
|
|
I dont know how well art and food go together. but it sounds good! + |
|
|
Mmmmm... great art you can eat. (Hey, there's the slogan!) |
