One of the most important events related to modern art, Artissima, has decided to set aside (temporarily) the 2020 edition at the Oval Lingotto, for a more intimate meeting format, distributing many micro events throughout the territory in collaboration with the Turin Museums Foundation.
For an Artissima who renounces meeting the public there is one Very good which, with all the necessary health precautions, inaugurates an international event, the Number Zero, which will involve Turin and many chefs and restaurants in the city.
Very good at the start
After more than a year of incubation, on 29 and 30 October 2020, Buonissima Torino will see the light, a gastronomic event of international scope, from an idea of Stefano Cavallitto is Luca Iaccarino food and wine journalists e Matteo Baronetto, chef of the Del Cambio restaurant.
The place chosen for the highlight of the event, the Circo Fellini dinner show, directed by Arturo Brachetti, is the Mole Antonelliana, an iconic symbol of the city.
Buonissima is intended to be the springboard for a recovery in the sector, that related to catering, one of the most affected by the Covid-19 emergency. We need to start thinking constructively, to carry out projects that promote the city internationally, not just locally. Buonissima will bring great chefs, gourmets and artists from Italy and abroad to Turin.
Luca Iaccarino, during the presentation press conference: «We chose Turin because Turin is special: it is a hotbed of projects, ideas, art, entertainment and culture. There are initiatives that we really like in other areas; it is no coincidence that what we are presenting today is called Buonissima, which explicitly evokes a great city event dedicated to art, Artissima. It is important that this happens now, because those who "jump" now question the future .
The number zero of Buonissima opens officially the event on October 29th, with five multi-handed dinners, scattered throughout the territory: they will be welcome dinners, 100% Turin menus declined in the most different ways, with interpretations of the chefs, located throughout the city.
