The Triumph of Potatoes will define how the humble
potato has not only survived into the new century
in the face of the barrage of tastes from other
root vegetables in drag, but it will demonstrate
how potatoes have absorbed celebrity imagery,
reshaped it in its own central domain, and touched
us profoundly.

Hello and welcome! This is the official web site
for the Starchy Gallery – the celebrity
potato competition that forms part of ‘Dulwich
Farmers’ Market’.
Last year we collected money at both the Farmers
' Market, and at the contemporary art gallery
Space Station Sixty Five, where the entries were
displayed following the event. Altogether the
Starchy Gallery raised £116, which goes
to local charity The Sydenham Garden Project (Registered
Charity no. 1108100).
We had a fantastic response to both the optional
theme (to recreate a classic work of art) as well
as the traditional celebrity category.
Visit the Gallery
to view the entries.
Many thanks to all who participated, as competitor
or spectator; to the City and Country Farmers’
Market; and to Space Station Sixty Five , East
Dulwich.
