Food

The food we prepare and ingest represents us, signifies us, and contributes to our individual and collective identity. Intended to trigger a series of reflections on the complexity of food, this book centres on the work of the eleven artists exhibited at the Biennale Foto/Industria, which is wholly dedicated to the food industry. Somewhere between a photography book and a cookbook, it arises from different parts of the world and spans an entire century while initiating a visual and textual conversation about the vast, multifaceted subject of food. Each artist’s body of work is a kind of case study, culminating with a recipe designed by writer and chef Tommaso Melilli to form a single meal.
