A well organized exhibitions possess, I believe, a double tier of interpretation. This is certainly the case for the fine show at the Milan Triennale until 22 February. After that date it will move on to Bergamo where it will remain until the end of October. Camminare la terra, curated by Aldo Colonetti, Alberto Capatti and Gian Arturo Rota, is dedicated to Luigi Veronelli. Not a large exhibition, it has been mounted in a small space on the first floor of the site. In fact, a single glance will suffice to understand the style of the initiative and to be moved by the rich and fertile terrain covered. Here is a life lived intensely, packed with interdisciplinary activity and wide-ranging stimuli, a personal and professional profile of great stature. It is possible to approach the exhibition from a more philological standpoint, moving from photograph to photograph, text to text, book to book. For those fortunate enough (as I was) to be professionally active in the 70s, the show will solicit many memories. Books and objects, perhaps many of them familiar and cherished, offer countless opportunities to connect with the past and it is surprising to discover that they are traceable to a single individual. Camminare la terra offers a fine entry point to relatively recent enogastronomical history, unwinding through the life’s work and personal testimony of one of the most significant figures to address Italian material culture of the twentieth century. Don’t miss it.

L’architettura dei ristoranti è in forte evoluzione. Un ripensamento dell’ospitalità in generale ha provocato un mutamento nel suo involucro. Più rilassato e più modellato sullo stile di vita moderno, i nuovi locali stanno abbandonando il bling per il comfort; stanno sostituendo il glamour con il benessere.
