“eat this” group exhibition

With “Eat this”, Kunstwerkt and CC De Schakel (Waregem) are organizing a group exhibition without selection for visual artists on the theme of food. From fast food to five-course meal, from supermarket rack to kitchen table, from breakfast bowl to nightcap. What does your canvas serve?

Andy Warhol's Campbell's Soup Cans, Vincent van Gogh's Aardappeleters, the fried eggs from Sarah Lucas's Self portrait with fried eggs, Marcel Broodthaers's Mosselpot or Cindy Wrights saucy leftover photographs. Food has colored art history for centuries. And how. With “Eat This”, we challenge you to work on what nourishes you, what you crave for or perhaps what you spit out.

After “Pet Shop” last summer, in which artists submitted their favorite two-dimensional pet for an exhibition at Kunsthal Gent, Kunstwerkt is adding a new chapter with an extra challenge at CC De Schakel. For this edition, we are looking for work with the specific format of 20 x 20 cm. New or existing work: submit it before the end of August via our online platform Beeld.
