Avventura, amore e tradimenti in un'epoca dominata da congiure ed inganni. Un centurione, memore di antiche integrità, cerca di contrastare, con le armi, corruzione e decadenza. Una fanciulla di antica e nobile stirpe romana che conosce l'amore sulle sponde barbare. Apprende, con coraggio, usi e costumi del forte Clan dei Lupi e ne diventa la Principessa.

Download or read book 1951 2001 written by Luigi Settembrini and published by Skira. This book was released on 2001 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sincere tribute to the world renowned phenomenon of Made in Italy on the occasion of two memorable dates: the fiftieth anniversary of the first Italian fashion show (Florence, 1951) and the fortieth anniversary of the International Furniture Show (Milan, 1961). The book, devoted to fifty years of Italian fashion and design, examines the complex mosaic of Made in Italy divided into different aspects and themes: -- Belvedere: an overview of the cultural and emotional relationship that exists between certain great foreign artists (including Luciano Fabro, Nam June Paik, Anish Kapoor, Joseph Kosuth, Panamarenko, Julian Schnabel) and Italy. -- Memory: a spectacular and historic interpretation of forty years of Italian life divided into four decades. Protagonists of the design and fashion worlds have been chosen for each decade: from Gio Ponti and Roberto Capucci (1951-1961) to Ettore Sottsass and Gianni Versace (1981-1991). -- Brokenhaus: an original mass of clothes and objects of fashion and design of the last 50 years, including Brionvega TV, Olivetti typewriters and Bialetti coffee-makers. -- Taste: another major "Italian-made" reality, gastronomy, is unconventionally interpreted by the designer Gaetano Pesce and by Andrea Pezzi, icon of teen-age pop culture. -- Allegory: a metaphor of the triumph of "Italian-made" goods to represent the decade 1991-2001, dedicated to all the leading figures in Italian design and fashion today, from Philippe Starck and Vico Magistretti to Gaetano Pesce, from Armani and Gucci to Dolce e Gabbana.

Download or read book Ilya Kabakov written by Ilʹi︠a︡ Iosifovich Kabakov and published by Kerber Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'book' has always played a pivotal role in the work of Ilya Kabakov. Initially successful as an illustrator of children's books in the Soviet Union, the book was the impetus for his visual artistic activity. The book has remained Kabakov's constant companion. On the one hand, it is used to present new projects. On the other, it is the medium used to document these projects once they have been realised. The book accompanies Kabakov's visual work but that is not its only purpose, it has always also been crucial in terms of the visual art itself. As always with Kabakov, there is no distinction between artistic practice and discourse. This applies also to this catalogue raisonne, which turns out to be a paradoxical construction - it is both an academic work and an artist's book. English and German text.
