...issued his 1934 manifesto to modern artists, he surely didn't have cooks in mind. But there is probably no creative force today who takes Pound's dictum more seriously than Spanish chef Ferran Adrià. After two decades spent revolutionizing modern cuisine, he and his business partner Juli Soler astonished the culinary world in January by announcing that they would close their restaurant El Bulli for a two-year period of reflection in 2012 and reopen in a new format. Now Adrià has detailed to TIME his plans to reinvent what many consider the most influential restaurant...
