Curatorial
Richard Gutman has worked with museums since 1972, when his slide show, "Adam & Eve on a Raft: Food Preparation in Diners," was shown at the Museum of Contemporary Crafts in New York City. This caught the attention of The New Yorker staff writer George W. S. Trow, who featured Richard in one of his pieces in "The Talk of the Town."
After serving as guest curator at the Museum of Our National Heritage and Copia: The American Center for Wine, Food & the Arts, Richard was hired as director and curator of the Culinary Arts Museum at Johnson & Wales University, in Providence, Rhode Island, a position he held for 11 years.
