Appetito Magazine: Food, Art, Culture and Nature Are on Exhibit at Magazzino Italian Art

Magazzino Italian Art, a museum and cultural hub just miles up the Hudson River from New York City, has among its many offerings a research center advancing public appreciation of postwar and contemporary Italian art, a thoughtfully designed corral that is home to 16 Sardinian donkeys, and Café Silvia, where Chef Luca Galli serves authentic, regional cuisine of the Italian peninsula and its islands.

There's a dialogue here between art, food, culture, and the environment that perhaps stems from the founder's tenet to embrace community, that permeates from the museum's grounds to the building's design to the programs, and finally, the kitchen.
