Archival images of yeast bicycels. These bicycles were used to transport the rising yeast to the bakeries in Bologna. We were looking at this as a model for transporting our rising bread from the workshop sites in the market to the MAMbo for baking, or possible as a model for a mobile oven. Yesterday, while we were visiting the market at XM24 we learned that the folks at the Ciclofficina Popolare Ampio Raggio (a free bike repair and maintenance spot) are devising a similar plan for a mobile oven. Sunday we’ll meet some folks from the shop and talk about joining forces.

This blog accompanies the project Fare il Pane a Bologna (Making Bread in Bologna), to be realized by Valentina Curandi, Nathaniel Katz and Chiara Landonio. The project is part of the Iceberg Festival in Bologna, Italy and will take place between May 21-23 in several market locations and outside of the MAMbo Museum of Modern Art.
