Exhibition:
Pot Luck: Food and Art22 May - 19 July 2009

Floor 3
Free
Pot Luck brings together 17 internationally acclaimed contemporary artists who explore the continuing relationship between food and art. The exhibition includes photography, sculpture, video and site-specific installations.
Pot Luck has been conceived in the mood of an informal ‘pot luck’ dinner where each artist has been invited to bring a ‘dish’ to the table. The eclectic offering includes two life-size Chinese restaurants, a salami raincloud and a bubbling chocolate fountain. This mixture of ingredients invites us to consider the role and significance of food and eating within our daily lives whilst experiencing the current flavour of our social and political climate.
Produced by Art Circuit Touring Exhibitions.
