art dinner “Dinner-performance” in conjunction with EXPO
curated by Maria Livia Brunelli
Can a dinner be an artistic performance? Yes, if it is delivered in a location
as evocative as that of the MLB home gallery by artists who have taken
the concept of food as their inspiration. The Maria Livia Brunelli art gallery inhabited
house, is, exceptionally for this occasion, “given” to diners to
savour the experience of having a dinner in a Renaissance palace in front
of Estense Castle, surrounded by works of art by international artists and
in nearby thematic exhibitions at the Palazzo Diamanti. A magical place,
hung with artworks where the curator Maria Livia Brunelli with her smile will
show how art can invade even the bedroom!
These exclusive “dinner-performances” are restricted to a maximum of eight
people (price is € 220 per person; € 200 for 3 people or more). Every dinner
will take place every last saturday of the month or by booking.
