Мы снова и снова гуляем по залам музеев и любуемся прекрасными произведениями живописи, подолгу вглядываясь в каждое полотно. Нам кажутся такими чарующими великолепные портреты, натюрморты и пейзажи и поэтому личности знаменитых художников кажутся нам безупречными, они для нас – образчики чистоты и красоты. Мы ведь привыкли воспринимать знаменитых художников через небольшие пояснения к их картинам и краткие биографические сведения, которые не сложно отыскать в библиотеках и на просторах интернета. Это делает их образы почти бесплотными.

Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 to April 9, 1959), born in Richland Center, Wisconsin, was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years. Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing architects worldwide through his works and mentoring hundreds of apprentices in his Taliesin Fellowship. Wright believed in designing in harmony with humanity and the environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.

Sir Nigel Thompson walked to school around the bomb craters of the London Blitz—it made him want to build things, rather than knock them down. After studying structural engineering in Africa, he worked on hospitals and theaters in London, and later headed the team that designed University of Qatar. He went on to design Embankment Place, a massive office complex built over London’s Charing Cross railway station. Turning from building to rebuilding, he explored construction opportunities for British firms during the Gulf War, in Kuwait’s still-burning oil fields.

Un ritratto inedito di Federico Fellini. Stefania Parmeggiani traccia un itinerario alla scoperta di Rimini, la città del regista entrata nella storia del cinema con Amarcord. Dal molo di levante con le note di Nino Rota in sottofondo, al cimitero monumentale dove un giorno di novembre i riminesi accompagnarono Fellini per l’ultima volta. In mezzo le viuzze del vecchio borgo di pescatori e quelle del centro storico, il tempietto dove le "baffone" andavano a benedire gli animali, il maestoso Grand Hotel, il cinema Fulgor e l’antico Castel Sismondo, oggi votato al culto felliniano.
