The Fellbach Small Sculpture Triennial has launched its 13th international edition at the historic Alte Kelter in Fellbach, Germany – a former wine production facility located in the wine-growing village of Stuttgart-Uhlbach.This year’s Triennial, entitled “FOOD – Ecologies of the Everyday,” is curated by Susanne Gaensheimer, Director of the MMK (Museum für Moderne Kunst) Frankfurt am Main, and co-curated by Anna Goetz.The show features small-scale sculptures by more than 40 artists including Andrea Büttner, Simon Fujiwara, Pierre Huyghe, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Subodh Gupta, and Pamela Rosenkranz, presented alongside historical works by Gordon Matta-Clark, Félix González-Torres, and Paul Thek.With a title taken from Gordon Matta-Clark and Carol Goodden’s conceptual SoHo restaurant project (1971-1974), “FOOD – Ecologies of the Everyday” reflects on the theme of food within the framework of the socioeconomic and environmental implications of its production and consumption.The participating artists address a number of topics relating to food, including the cycles of food, the sociopolitical implications of eating, as well as the relationship between what people eat and their self-image and body awareness.According to the Triennial’s curatorial statement, in the context of the exhibition, “food and its ramifications become an anthropologically universal paradigm of political, ecological, and economic interrelations.”“FOOD – Ecologies of the Everyday” runs through October 2 at the Alte Kelter in Fellbach.Click the slideshow to see some of the highlights of the Triennial.Participating artists:Abbas Akhavan, Ayreen Anastas / Rene Gabri, Valentin Beck / Adrian Rast, Björn Braun, Andrea Büttner, Elaine Cameron-Weir, Aslı Çavuşoğlu, Banu Cennetoğlu, Mark Dion, Arpad Dobriban, Latifa Echakhch, Gina Folly, Simon Fujiwara, Simryn Gill, Félix González-Torres, Tue Greenfort, Mauricio Guillén, Subodh Gupta, Petrit Halilaj, Lena Henke, Huang Po-Chih, Pierre Huyghe, Josh Kline, Tetsumi Kudo, Alicja Kwade, Zac Langdon-Pole, Gordon Matta-Clark, Paulo Nazareth, Roman Ondák, Att Poomtangon, Laure Prouvost, Dan Rees, Pamela Rosenkranz, Ben Schumacher, Dana Sherwood, Shimabuku, Rasmus Søndergaard Johannsen, Paul Thek, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Patrick Van Caeckenbergh, Cathy Wilkes, Anicka Yi
