At one of my favourite galleries in TO there is a food related exhibition that is on display from now until October 28, 2007. The exhibition called Eat the Food is on at the MOCCA - Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (Queen Street W.)
It is: A gastronomical journey through art, looking into the uses of food as a subject and metaphor in art in all its forms including different ways of eating, cooking and thinking about food. The exhibition features "Meatcandy" by Henrik Schrat, Greiz, Germany. A large mural divided into two spheres, people and food production machine, will be painted onto the gallery walls. Also featured are videos of slaughter houses, farm animals in people's living room more artsy takes on the way we look at food and food production...Eat the Food! interferes with many of our assumptions surrounding food, the food industry, its production, its distribution, and the very essence of the matter we call food.
You might even see Mike Meyers there as I have seen him a few times around town, the last one was noshing on some sushi at the Drake Hotel (their sushi is amazing)
There will also be food demonstrations by Susur Lee and they will be taking food donations at the gallery.
I wonder if there will be free food? Ask someone on a date and go there.
