Fire in the Belly is the untold story of a polarizing figure at a pivotal moment in American culture - and one of the most highly acclaimed biographies of the year.

When he died in 1992, Brett Whiteley left behind decades of ceaseless activity - some works bound to a particular place or time, others that are masterpieces of light and line. Whiteley had arrived in Europe in 1960 determined to make an impression. Before long he was the youngest artist to have work acquired by the Tate. With his wife, Wendy, and daughter, Arkie, Whiteley then immersed himself in bohemian New York. But within two years he fled, having failed to break through.

Warner Bros charts the rise of an unpromising film studio from its shaky beginnings in the early 20th century through its ascent to the pinnacle of Hollywood influence and popularity.

In The Language of Things, Deyan Sudjic, director of the Design Museum, decodes the things around us: their hidden meanings, our relationships with them, how they shape our lives and why we desire them. Design is everywhere. It seduces, pleases and inspires us. It makes us part with our money. It defines who we think we are. An iPhone, an anglepoise lamp, a Picasso, a banknote, an Armani suit, a William Morris textile, a Lucky Strike packet, a spacecraft - every object tells a story.

Hollywood Ending is an on-the-ground history of the beginning of the end for movies, from the lush offices of Michael Ovitz's talent management company to the plucky production of cult hit Donnie Darko.

Il cinema è da sempre il mezzo di comunicazione più audace e irriverente, sa sfidare la società e misurarne i limiti. Tra gli anni Trenta e il 1968, l'anno in cui tutto cambia, il cinema, sia in Italia che a Hollywood, non esita ad affrontare temi considerati tabù - l'adulterio, il sesso, l'omosessualità - con uno sguardo disincantato e provocatorio. Dalla censura imposta agli Studios al fascino dirompente di Brigitte Bardot e Sophia Loren, dalla retorica di epoca fascista a Tinto Brass e Pasolini, fino alle polemiche dei giorni nostri riguardo al movimento #MeToo.

La mattina del 10 ottobre 1517 il cardinale Luigi d'Aragona e il suo segretario Antonio de Beatis salirono su una collina sulle rive della Loira verso il castello di Cloux. Non andavano a rendere omaggio a un membro della famiglia reale ma a un principe dell'arte, e per di più italiano. In quella giornata, Leonardo mostra al cardinale e al suo seguito tre quadri ai quali stava lavorando e che saranno gli ultimi che dipingerà prima di morire: la Sant'Anna, il San Giovannino e la Gioconda.

"Il dipinto era steso su un ampio tavolo coperto da carta velina. Presentava l'aspetto comune a molti dipinti antichi realizzati con una tecnica eccellente. Le vernici ingiallite offuscavano i colori e le forme. Ma lasciavano trapelare intatta la forza della pittura di Michelangelo." Antonio Forcellino, tra i massimi conoscitori dell'opera del maestro fiorentino, è abituato a ricevere decine di richieste di expertise, la maggior parte improbabili. Tra queste c'è anche quella di un americano che gli manda per email la fotografia del disegno preparatorio di una tavola in suo possesso.

Quadri, sculture, installazioni, arte ambientale e pubblica, arte post-Internet: l'arte visiva ha acquisito nell'ultimo secolo un vocabolario complesso. Nonostante il pubblico la trovi difficile e molti critici l'abbiano dichiarata morta, mai come oggi si dimostra vitale. Nelle sue forme nuove ha invaso il mondo: in una dinamica sempre più internazionale - anche in tempi di crisi - sorgono ovunque mostre, musei e collezioni.

10 giugno 2014. Con la presa di Mosul, e la successiva proclamazione dello Stato Islamico in Siria e Iraq, non solo si viene a creare una vera e propria enclave terroristica, ma ha inizio la distruzione sistematica e intenzionale della civiltà millenaria dell'antica Mesopotamia. Un drammatico atto di violenza iconoclastica che non ha paralleli nella storia moderna.

Em um momento no qual conceitos como “Colonialidade”, “Descolonialidade”, “Decoloniedade” e “Contracolonialidade” estão na ordem do dia, Olivier Marboeuf, em Fugas Decoloniais, foge de explicações estereotipadas e lugares-comuns acadêmicos. Com uma análise arguta e inteligente, pautada em sólidas referências, o autor apresenta, através de “lições” e “conversas”, como as estratégias da cultura e da economia neoliberal se esforçam por manter as estruturas das esferas coloniais.
