According to Julia Sherman, cooking is a lot like painting: “ It’s a composition, it’s layering of materials… it works best when there’s contrasting flavors and textures and colors.”

The author and chef is bringing this philosophy to her latest venture as executive chef of the new restaurant at New York’s New Museum, opening this fall. On this episode of The Artsy Podcast, Sherman joins Artsy’s managing editor Olivia Horn for a conversation about how artists eat, why art institutions are leaning into dining, and what the art and food worlds can learn from each other.

Plus, Artsy editors Casey Lesser and Arun Kakar recap recent art fairs in Seoul and New York and discuss the artists who are on their radar this fall.

Julia Sherman is a chef, artist, and author of two cookbooks—Arty Parties and Salad for President. Sherman is the executive chef and director of artists’ partnerships for the restaurant opening in the expanded New Museum in the late fall of 2025.
