Food, People and the City

Hanzestedenplaats 1, Antwerpen, België

Recently, food historians Peter Scholliers and Patricia Van Den Eeckhout wrote that “cities seem like enormous sponges that absorb masses of staple and luxury foodstuffs from nearby and distant shores”. Cities are by definition 'hungry' – a statement with a similar meaning by architect Carolyn Steel appearing in her book, Hungry City (2008). Though these statements carry the risk of oversimplifying the complex relationship between food and cities, they help to address a major issue: the challenges of feeding the globally growing urban populations. Therefore, this conference aims through papers, panels and discussions, to increase our awareness of food systems as dynamic cultural phenomena. Every city is shaped by food!
