When crises strike, people often turn to the age-old practice of food preservation. The exhibition Crisis Canning explores how canning provides solutions during times of food shortages, such as wars, economic downturns, and pandemics. Throughout history, the need to preserve food has been a constant, with many living on the brink of emergencies and needing to stay prepared. In this talk, Sebastián Encina, Minnetrista's Associate Director of Curation & Exhibition, will guide you on a global journey through time to uncover various preservation methods and the resilience of those who employed them.
