Book excerpt: POWER FOOD LEXIcom is presented as an archive or lexicographical inventory that proposes a reflection on the infinite relationships between food, culture, energy and power. The introduction of the book, or lexicon itself, is a collection of keywords or semantic fields related to 50 subjects. Two ways of browsing the contents of POWER FOOD LEXIcom are suggested: one by reading the texts following the order of the lexicon, and another by viewing the images that accompany the texts without pretending to illustrate them, offering a transversal interpretation. POWER FOOD LEXIcom transforms the poetic and powerful image of food into a wealth of voices, idioms and messages that propose a journey through the network of connections that link food with energy and medicine, rites with beliefs and popular culture and power with economy and control.
