In November, we were treated to an interesting discussion on the Maggi Galaxy by Stephan Palmié, Anthropology Dept. at University of Chicago and Antoni Miralda, Artist and founder of FoodCultura. They were collaborating on FoodCultura, supported by a Gray Center Mellon Collaborative Fellowship, as they explore the intersection between food, art, and other forms of cultural exchange. This project also includes “Foodcultura: The Art and Anthropology of Cuisine,” a team-taught course with a focus on "Chicago's diverse and complex alimentary and gustatory worlds."

A Taste of FoodCultura will be a snapshot of the student’s final presentations from this course:

Sinhá / home dining (January 25)
Sugar (January 25)

Foodchains / South Shore vs Albany Park (February 15)
Live Poultry (February 15)
