After the inspiring visit of the exhibition of Subodh Gupta at the Museum
of Modern Art in Frankfurt the group of the voluntary Unesco Art Class did several brainstormings to start their own artwork and inventory. Lots
of ideas came up and passed away, like making a common artwork asking people
for a drawing of the best moment in life.
As
we always meet around lunch time food is always something someone thinks about
and Subodh Gupta has also shown several installations relating to this cultural
field.
So
the idea came up to collect photographies of the interiors of refrigerators
around the world via social networks. Friends and families of the students
supported the concept by opening up their fridge and contributing pictures.
These will be shown at the exhibition in a book. On the photos you can study and
compare the different food and various products, the systems of storing and
packing away.
The
light of the refrigerators highlights the supply of nourishment that is
nowadays often a mixed collection of
typical local food and global brands. They look similar around the world. So it is not so easy to find out where
the pictures were taken.
