April 24, 2019

Music/Arts

What’s food culture in Germany today really like? Is it all just sausages and sauerkraut, or are there other delicious delights to discover?

Find out at this one-of-a-kind photo exhibition at Germany Week in Chicago! Renowned art and fashion photographer Juergen Teller traveled throughout Germany to discover diverse regional variations of German cuisine. His photographs from this trip reveal how German food culture is largely shaped by young chefs creatively reinventing centuries-old traditions—many of them from around the globe—who bring their own unique ideas to the table. Join us on this culinary adventure and get your taste buds tingling—mmm!

The exhibition will begin with a vernissage on Friday, April 26 at 6:30pm, immediately following the Germany Week Opening Ceremony. The event is free and open to the public.
