Augias I just can not finish it. Paper Processing a singhiozzo, fra storia dell'arte e Storia mentre con accuse più o meno velate, col consueto tono pacato, ma incisivo ed allusivo, il giornalista (che molto apprezzo) ripercorre le vicende meno chiare legate agli uomini della Chiesa Cattolica.
Se i fatti a noi più vicini rimangono interessanti, le molte ricostruzioni storiche, sovente accompagnate da piccoli trattati di storia dell'arte, naufragano un po' nella noia. Non tanto perchè privi di interesse in sè, ma perchè decontestualizzati ed isolati in modo da rendere la lettura frammentaria e spesso, quindi, annoiando.
Così ieri, in libera uscita alla Feltrinelli, mi son comprata Mattatoio n. 5 e Il sergente nella neve , two beautiful classic contemporary theme of war and hope I catch more (I'm sure).
Before I jump in the library, Luke, and the Congo visit, we tried a trip to the Dali exhibition at the Palazzo Reale.
Given the queue, we have folded on the visit to the Museum of 900.
given the expected (after an hour you could not see even the entrance), we finally stuck in the most secluded exhibition on the painter and musician Lithuanian Čiurlionis Society.
some ways reminded me of Blake scoring though less obsessive, less tied to religious iconography.

Very nice loop on the creation of the world, in which echoes the powerful echo of his music, with a sequence of pictures that I have mentioned the very first episode of Disney's Fantasia , the music of Bach, with colors and shapes that follow the notes.
Not to mention the fabulous suggestions of distant lands .. short, a nice surprise that we were very impressed and satisfied.
Ah, yes, Saturday there was also the league to Arcimboldi, but frankly, despite big fan, it was nothing of that. Always good, he played for more than two hours rearranging some pieces, as well as vocal technique - let's face it: almost no - I feel more mature and aware. But it is not an artist to listen to sitting in a theater: no vocal virtuosity delighted to listen with bated breath, but more like a bit 'of his rock.
So, a nice evening, but without much glory. ;-)
