SUMMARY:The Land of Milk and Honey Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:The Land of Milk and Honey is a traveling multidisciplinary arts and culture program focused on the ideological concept of agriculture in the regions of California and Mexico. Drawing inspiration from John Steinbeck’s portrayal of the region as a corrupted Eden\, the biennial presents works that question ethical\, cultural and regional practices related to foodways\, and the venture from seed to table. The biblical reference of a “land of milk and honey” first became associated with California as a tool for promoting the state as a land of opportunity; a destination for those in search of a better way of life – a terra firma that would provide sustenance and abundance. This boosterism also served as an ethos that fueled “Manifest Destiny” and resulted in land grabs\, labor exploitation\, ecological destruction\, and social injustices. \nThis inaugural exhibition explores artists’ views around multi-layered topics associated with agriculture including environmental impacts\, cultural culinary traditions\, identity and migration\, regional histographies\, and familial and mythical connections to food. The exhibition will run from September 1–December 31\, 2022. \nHeader Image: Fernando Armenghol\, Sol2Soul Art Collective (2016)\, La Cosecha Sagrada\, digital photograph.
