Jacqueline Peeters, "Unsold Paintings", 2020, Installation view, Zazà Ramen
Zazà Ramen, given the background of its owner Brendan Becht, couldn’t help but have strong ties to contemporary art. Every six months a different exhibition is prepared for the spaces of the restaurant, and young Italian artists like Thomas Berra and Marco Andrea Magni have left their mark in the room where the Dutch artist Jacqueline Peeters also had a show, her first in Milano. For Becht the restaurant should not simply be a place where people gather to eat; it should first of all be a place of sharing, in which to feel good, enjoying excellent ramen while enjoying works of art.
