Haim Cohen es uno de los chefs más conocidos de Tel Aviv. En un lugar que mezcla ingredientes y cocinas, la suya se ha hecho famosa por trabajar los alimentos con honestidad (en la selección de materiales y en los juegos gastronómicos) y hasta con ingenuidad (en la naturalidad de las propuestas). Cohen buscó a los arquitectos Baranowitz y Kroenenberg para que tradujeran ese credo en restaurante.

(…) los arquitectos explican que buscaron trabajar con “agua, hormigón y acero de la misma manera que Cohen cocina con agua, harina y aceite de oliva”.

Haim Cohen is one of the best-known chefs of Tel Aviv. Onto a place that mixes ingredients and kitchens, his has become famous for working on food with honesty - in the choice of materials and gastronomic games- and even naivety - in the naturalness of his proposals. Cohen wanted the architects Baranowitz and Kroenenberg to translate this creed into a restaurant.

[…] the architects explain that they intended to work with “water, concrete and steel the same way Cohen does with water, flour and olive oil”.

Flat astrolabe and moving indicator to determine planet influence

Liber Physiognomiae fine art facsimile edition

The Liber Physiognomiae is a miscellany of medieval astrological and medical treatises, reviewed at the dawning of the humanistic age. The author of the texts, the illuminator and the purchaser are still unknown. The descriptions of the days and of the four seasons are followed by the twelve signs of the zodiac, one per page, drawn together with the text of the horoscopes outlining the character and the positive and negative events in the lives of men and women in relation to the period of birth. The water-coloured figures at the bottom of the page represent the influence of planets on mankind.

Jorge Luis Borges

“Con esa voluntad logrera de aprovechar el menor ápice vital, con esa comezón continua de encuadernar el universo y encajonarlo en una estantería, sólo se llega a un sempiterno espionaje del alma propia, que tal vez resquebraja e histrioniza al hombre que lo ejerce.”
