PELICAN COVE CAFE
"EAT ART!"
"Pelican Cove Cafe" 1979
Located at 602 19th Ave. East in the
Pelican Bay Artists Co-Op Building in 1979, the Pelican Cove Cafe
was an incredible, mostly non-edible, enticing, exciting display of
cafe memorabilia, kitsch and original art presented in, and as, a cafe
environment. The Pelican Cove Cafe captured, as an
art piece, and in a fresh and humorous manner, the feel of a favorite
Mom and Pop coffee shop. The Pelican Cove was not a real restaurant
it was something even better, a surreal restaurant. The Cafe was the creation of three Seattle artists and their friends at the time. Don Bass, Alison Loris, and Nancy Hall are credited with the original concept. *Taken in part from the Seattle Sun, "Let Them Eat Art", February 14, 1979 |
