Reviews

This volume is a timely response to the burgeoning practices of food-based art and their politics, highlighting some of the most compelling demonstrations of this in Asia and Australia today. It is unique not just for how it connects creative and critical inquiries into the aesthetics and politics of food with urgent questions of justice and care, but also as a rare gathering of artist writings. Significantly, the book’s critical layering of artist voices alongside the perspectives of scholars and curators in and from Asia and Australia contributes to the ‘discursive density’ being called for by leading thinkers and practitioners in the evolving field of contemporary art. Michelle Antoinette, Associate Professor in Art History and Theory at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia
