Serate d'artista - Gianni Colombo

These are a cycle of evening events, promoted by Open Care in collaboration with other partners and dedicated to the work and memory of a particular artist, consisting in a round table of experts and a Cena d’Artista  (Artist’s Dinner), organised by the Kitchens of the Frigoriferi Milanesi, the restaurant inside the complex.

The first edition of the review, dedicated to a number of great Italian artists from the Milan milieu of the second half of the twentieth century, was organised by Rosalia Pasqualino di Marineo, curator at the Milan Fondazione Piero Manzoni and had as its protagonists: Piero Manzoni, Dadamaino, Fausto Melotti and Gianni Colombo. The dinner, with an exclusive menu inspired by the artists, was created by the chef Antonietta Pasqualino di Marineo.

At the event in memory of Gianni Colombo, the participants were, amongst others: Marco Scotini, curator and manager of the Archivio Gianni Colombo, the artists Giovanni Anceschi, Grazia Varisco and Roberto Casiraghi, the photographer Maria Mulas, the curators Marcella Beccaria, Paola Nicolin and Luca Cerizza, the director of the New York Greene Naftali Gallery, Vera Alemani. During the evening, Luca Trevisani, Gianluca and Massimiliano De Serio showed their videos. The evening was organised in collaboration with theArchivio Gianni Colombo.

One of the main Milanese artists of the 1960s, Colombo was the fundamental interpreter of programmed art, overcoming the traditional concept of art works. His works ask those looking at them not only to perceive but also to interact with them. Sismostruttura, Cronostruttura or Architettura Cacogoniometrica are all some of his more famous creations that the Cena d’Artista aimed to evoke.
