Presentations in November 2024 - Bear Hunger

Bear hunger - stories and delicacies from the wilderness
 

Reno Sommerhalder, a Swiss national living in Canada, will be travelling to Switzerland again in November 2024 for the launch of his new and globally unique book ‘Bärenhunger’, which will be published by AT Verlag at the end of October. Unique because the richly illustrated work contains two things: Bear stories and recipes, all captured in pictures, consisting almost exclusively of bear food.
Reno Sommerhalder's world is not only adventurous, but also tasty - his bear recipes bear witness to this. He shows how salmon is smoked or what wild potatoes are, how to prepare asparagus from willowherbs or how to bake a bear nut cake.    
The adventurer, who grew up in Kloten, is using the publication of the book as an opportunity to give a number of multimedia presentations in his old homeland: stories about his life among bears. These are live commentated reports, touching stories about his countless encounters with grizzlies. The new multimedia show draws in particular on ‘Bärenhunger’, Sommerhalder's experience of getting by largely on bear food. 
With this new enlightening look at a common diet, Sommerhalder shows that humans and bears are more similar than perhaps assumed. This realisation should - as has always been the case with Sommerhalder's work - promote understanding and respect for bears, for these animals that, as perfect environmental indicators, tell us a lot about the state of nature.

When one tugs on a single thing in nature,
