@patihertling is, more often than not, in the service of others.

In the more than 20 years since her foray into the art world, Pati has always incorporated cooking—and collaboration—into her work. The offering at the “Evas Arche und der Feminist” art salons that made her a staple in the early-aughts avant-gardes of Berlin and New York? Soup and bread. The accompaniment to gatherings big and small at the East Village nerve center Performance Space, which she has led alongside Taja Cheek and Ana Beatriz Sepúlveda since 2023? Steaks for most, or grilled salmon for the pescatarians. Sustenance for all.
The one-time restitution lawyer uses the act of breaking bread to break down the barrage of information, expectations, and opinions we walk into such events with and invites us, instead, to arrive among the artwork and our fellow guests alert. (After all, there is nothing quite like the act of chewing to ground us in the present.) We shift from bystanders into participants, strangers into neighbors, during these meals. Less fuss, more care—that’s the Pati way.

To give readers a taste of her special sauce, Food Editor @minastone sat down with Pati to pick her brain about the power of food for CULTURED’s Art + Food issue. Read the full conversation, and order your copy of the issue, at the link in bio.
