| | | | Sunset CocktailsText by Guillaume Aubry, Sterling Hudson. Afterword by Ryoko Sekiguchi.
 From golden ice cubes to crepuscular charcoal dust: sunset-inspired cocktail recipes to enliven that special hourThis book is an invitation to transform the simple contemplation of a well-mixed cocktail into a sensory experience of “drinking the sunset.”
In 2020, French artist and architect Guillaume Aubry (born 1982) asked the celebrated Paris-based American mixologist Sterling Hudson to translate his artistic research on sunsets into cocktail recipes. Based on Aubry’s research and Hudson’s expertise, Sunset Cocktails presents 12 cocktails inspired by the beauty of a sunset, from the dazzling “Regulus,” whose saffron ice cube glows gold once submerged in vermouth, to the “Grand Soir,” a liquid sunset that infuses a dusting of charcoal into a crisp glass of vodka.
With luxurious full-color photographs of the cocktails and the sunsets that inspired them, this volume encourages readers to consider mixology as a creative form of expression in the larger context of art history; in addition to Aubry’s own writing on the subject, Japanese poet Ryoko Sekiguchi provides a luminous afterword to prepare readers' imaginations for an aesthetic and gustatory experience. A small-format, easily accessible volume, Sunset Cocktails presents Aubry and Hudson’s collaboration with a uniquely poetic flair, encouraging readers to reflect upon society’s relationship with sunsets and our collective aesthetic experience of quotidian moments of beauty, whether those manifest as a sunset, a fancy cocktail, or both.

| | FROM THE ARTBOOK BLOG CORY REYNOLDS | DATE 9/22/2021 This week we toast the autumnal equinox, which rings in the bittersweet change from summer to fall, with Sunset Cocktails, the intoxicating new recipe book by French artist and architect Guillaume Aubry and Paris-based American mixologist Sterling Hudson. Bold, playful and evocative, this pocket-sized, 90-page hardcover contains a dozen cocktail recipes inspired by the universal beauty of the sunset (including one that's actually named "Equinox," as seen above). “Inspired by masterpieces taken from a very wide selection of works of art, they are both tongue-in-cheek homages to the history of phenomenology, and personal invitations to tackle it hands-on,” Aubry writes. “Let’s experiment and drink the sunset. Incorporate the burning star. Ingest the infinity of space. Assimilate the universe.” continue to blog | FORTHCOMING AND NEW: VISUAL CULTURE |  | NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERYISBN: 9781855145771
