"What's Not on the Art Museum Menu?"

Irina D. Mihalache respectfully conducts her research on the territories of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe, Mississaugas of the Credit River, and the Huron-Wendat, where she resides as a settler. She is Associate Professor and Director of Museum Studies at the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Information. She co-edited Food and Museums (Bloomsbury, 2017), a volume where scholars, museum professionals, artists, and chefs reflect on the intersections between foods and museums. She is the author of scholarly chapters and articles on: histories of women's committees in art museums and culinary work; museum restaurants, menus, and interpretation; and Canadian women’s magazines as sites of food identity negotiations. In 2018, she co-curated the exhibition “Mixed Messages: Making and Shaping Culinary Culture in Canada”. Currently, she is working on an edited collection on food and material culture, and an analysis of 1980s restaurant menus from the Art Gallery of Ontario.
