Promoted by BJCEM in the frame of the Food Wave project, Every food is a landscape is an exhibition of sixteen artists from nine different countries in Europe and the Mediterranean, reflecting on the environmental, cultural and social impact of food production and consumption on the landscape. Among human activities, food production is one of the most impactful to climate change, due to land exploitation, fertilizers, and inappropriate agricultural practices. Therefore, Every food is a landscape offers a multidisciplinary approach to climate change by focusing on food production and consumption in European and Mediterranean countries. The exhibition – curated by Marco Trulli – is an analysis of the contradictory landscapes that result from food production, with the aim of re-think our relationship with food as an element of connection between us and the ecosystem and as a vehicle of relations between different cultures and languages, which crosses all borders.

The exhibition will be freely accessible from November 27th to December 18th. The opening will take place on November 26th from 6:30 to 8:00 PM CET at the Polo del ‘900 Turin, Palazzo San Celso, Corso Valdocco 4/A.
 
On November 27th, from 10 AM to 1:30 PM CET Polo del ‘900 will also host a conference featuring the participation of the young artists involved in the exhibition, local activists and the presentation of a new call for artists and designers coordinated by ActionAid Italia and IED within the Food Wave project.
