Søren Aagaard at Kunsthalle Recklinghausen
From Kunsthalle Recklinghausen:
The Danish artist Søren Aagaard (*1980) questions the performative potential of food and art in a wide variety of contexts. Who cooks what, and for whom? A closer look quickly reveals that food is a highly controversial topic. Aagard’s witty and carefully researched exhibition transforms the kitchen, the center of the domestic realm, into a performative-sculptural setting. Who would have thought that cooking and art have so much in common?
Following numerous solo and group exhibitions, including at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Roskilde and at the Performa Biennale in New York, the Kunsthalle Recklinghausen is now showing Søren Aagaard’s first solo museum exhibition in Germany as part of the Ruhrfestspiele.
