Michele Lombardelli's Untitled Cloth at Zazà Ramen in Milan
Milan's Zazà Ramen, a Japanese restaurant near Porta Nuova, doubles as a contemporary art space since 2013. Owner Brendan Becht, a Dutch art enthusiast, has hosted international artists like David Tremlett and Jan van der Ploeg. The current exhibition features Michele Lombardelli, a Cremona-born artist and editor (b. 1968). His show 'Untitled Cloth,' organized with A+B Gallery of Brescia, centers on two large fabric panels totaling eight meters in length, with vertical stripes in black, cerulean, bronze, and rust. The translucent veils move with restaurant patrons, creating a multidimensional installation that integrates with the space. Limited edition prints complement the main work. The restaurant also displays photographs of a Yayoi Kusama performance.
