M9 Museum in Mestre Opens Exhibition on Italian Food Culture and Taste
On March 25, 2022, the M9 Museum in Mestre, directed by Luca Molinari, will unveil the exhibition 'Gusto! Gli italiani a tavola 1970-2050.' This showcase, curated by Laura Lazzaroni and Massimo Montanari, features design by Gambardellarchitetti and graphics by CamuffoLab. It examines the changing dynamics of Italians' culinary experiences over the last 50 years and anticipates future developments. The exhibition is divided into three parts: an introductory vestibule, a central section with 'rooms of taste' addressing various themes, and a concluding area that imagines future possibilities. Contributions come from a scientific committee including Marco Bolasco, Eliana Liotta, Fabio Parasecoli, Ilaria Porciani, and Emanuela Scarpellini.
