Leonardo da Vinci [1453-1519], nascido em Florença, na Itália, foi um dos maiores gênios que já existiram; ele se interessou por praticamente todos os campos do conhecimento humano, abrangendo as mais diversas ciências, além de ser exímio artista, escultor e pintor da mais alta categoria. Ainda hoje o mundo inteiro admira seus inventos, esboços e projetos de todo tipo, e seus quadros maravilhosos como a Santa Ceia e a Mona Lisa; admiremos um pouco desse gênio.

Flower is a book of realistic admissions, likes, dislikes, memories and no-brainer observations, treating personal truth as unavailable – something that must be made up and convincing. Taking cues from confessional literature, his daughter’s improvised games, poor internet writing and shitty AI, Ed Atkins, in his first work of non-fiction, equivocates between inanity and divinity, ease and pain, sentimentality and sterility.

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.

Andy Warhol claimed that he loved being outside a party—so that he could get in. But more often than not, the party was at his own studio, The Factory, where celebrities—from Edie Sedgwick and Allen Ginsberg to the Rolling Stones and the Velvet Underground—gathered in an ongoing bash.

لم يرغب نجيب محفوظ في كتابة سيرته، فنأى عن تمثيل دور البطولة، أو إغراقنا في تفاصيل طفولته وريعان شبابه وكيف تفادى الحوادث الجسام وكيف استقبل لحظات الظفر الكبرى. كان أديبًا متمكنًا يستطيع كتابة مجلد عن سيرته، مرضٍ لجميع القراء والنقاد ويحدث ضجة إعلامية في الصحف والمجلات. ولكن اهتم محفوظ بأصداء حياته، فأصداء الحياة تمنحنا المعنى الذي هو رجع الحياة حين ينتهي الحدث، المعنى الذي يظل الإنسان يعدو ليصل إليه.

Three complaisant kids, two stormy parents, one anxious French poodle, too many U-haul trailers, and the potholed road of the early 1960s. Searching for Alpha Centauri is American Public Television artist Gary Spetz's boyhood memoir of living a nomadic life with an impetuous mother, a discontent casino-security-guard step-father, an anxious French poodle, and two complaisant siblings -- during the early 1960s. The artist/author paints his moving landscape with words. He adeptly colors these words with both humor and tenderness.

Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) never signed a painting, and none of his supposed self-portraits can be securely ascribed to his hand. He revealed next to nothing about his life in his extensive writings, yet countless pages have been written about him that assign him an identity: genius, entrepreneur, celebrity artist, outsider. Addressing the ethical stakes involved in studying past lives, Stephen J. Campbell shows how this invented Leonardo has invited speculation from figures ranging from art dealers and curators to scholars, scientists, and biographers.

We Need Your Art is a revolutionary reprogramming of everything we have been taught and told about being a creative, removing the shame and fear we may feel at dubbing ourselves artists and inviting us to create proudly, with celebration.

Le collaborazioni con Piero Angela e Enzo Jannacci, gli incontri con Mina e Matt Groening, il successo del Signor Rossi e quella notte degli Oscar in compagnia di Kim Basinger e un pirata... Con la complicità di Tempia, Bozzetto ripercorre le sue esperienze di creativo e regista - dai filmini adolescenziali sulle formiche del giardino di casa alla genesi di West and Soda e Vip, da Allegro non troppo fino a oggi -, intrecciandole ai momenti più formativi, divertenti e toccanti della sua vita, come quella volta che la stampa lo definì "meglio della Loren" o il giorno in cui ha scelto una pecora per amica.

Summer in Paris, 1783. The Louvre steps, too hot and no breeze, the air electric with the heady anticipation of a coming storm: the year's Royal Salon. Men and women of every estate are united under art: to love it, to despise it, to gossip endlessly about it. Exhibiting at the Royal Salon was not for the faint of heart, and it was never intended for women. Enter Adélaïde Labille-Guiard . . . Born in Paris in 1749, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard rose from shopkeeper's daughter to an official portraitist of the royal court—only to have her achievements reduced to ash by the French Revolution

В 1889 году художник, журналист и один из теоретиков символизма Эмиль Бернар написал небольшую заметку, посвященную творчеству Поля Сезанна. Долгие годы Бернар был поклонником художника, но познакомился с ним лично лишь в 1904 году, остановившись на месяц в Экс-ан-Провансе – родном городе и месте силы Сезанна. Почти каждый день Эмиль Бернар навещал Сезанна. Вместе они ходили на пленэры и много говорили об искусстве. Вспоминая эти встречи, а также перечитывая письма, полученные от своего учителя, Эмиль Бернар и написал эту небольшую книгу воспоминаний о великом художнике.
