“Genius and Madness” in New York, Sicily in the Soul: Angela Fodale Palladino

“I remember that I loved digging and finding objects in Sicily. If painting is analytical and imposes an expansion of time, sculpture is instinct embodied in the work,” Fodale Palladino says. “For me, painting is the height of the expression of feelings and the state of the soul.”

How to Celebrate the Genius of Leonardo, 500 Years After His Death

It seems that in this year of celebrations for the 500th anniversary of his death, visiting Leonardo da Vinci exhibitions is like eating chocolate, popcorn, or peanuts: the more you see, the more you desire. At the end of my article “Celebrations for the 500th Anniversary of Leonardo Da Vinci” published on January 16th, I […]

Verrocchio, the Sculptor, the Painter and the Master of Leonardo

In spite of Vasari’s admiration and Verrocchio’s importance as a teacher, up-to-now there has never been an exhibition devoted to him. The event in the Palazzo Strozzi and the Museo Bargello aims to bring valuable insight into the early influence of Florence and of Verrocchio and his workshop on Leonardo’s oeuvre (seven on display here). The National Gallery in Washington D.C. will host a smaller, especially curated version, of the show from 29 September 2019 to 2 February 2020.

Andrea Spiga, the Photographer Who Immortalizes Centenarians

Her project, Dna100, immortalizes subjects of one hundred years or more along with their diverse stories, all of which share one common denominator: that of having blown out one hundred candles. The life of these people, who Spiga has evocatively placed in the foreground of her photographs or with their hands entwined with rosary beads, has a sweet and sour flavor at the same time

Celebrations for 500th Anniversary of Leonardo’s Death

As I wrote in my August 27th La Voce article, “Leonardo Da Vinci Still Making Headlines” Leonardo was born in the Tuscan hill town of Vinci on April 15, 1452, the oldest illegitimate son of a promiscuous wealthy notary and a peasant. He died at 67 on May 2, 1519 near Amboise in France where […]

SoBe is Love: When Italian Love Charms Art Basel Miami

The sculpture symbolizes the project’s message of love and community unity in light of post-election political divide and an epidemic of national gun violence and highlights intercultural principles of hope and faith. It pays tribute to the late artist Robert Indiana, whose well-known sculptures are universally recognized as symbolic of those same messages

Armenia at The Metropolitan Museum of Art and in Venice

Since 1717 St. Lazarus Island in the Venetian lagoon has been a foremost and deeply revered center of Armenian culture in the world. Visitors to the exhibition, “Armenia!”, on at the Met until January 13, will want to make a pilgrimage to this shrine and sacred place too. For without the foresight of the first Abbot Mekhitar most of Armenia’s cultural history would have been lost forever

Jacopo Comin: Probably the Last Great Painter of the Italian Renaissance

During the 20th century, probably on account of the enormous size of many of his works, very few monographic exhibitions were dedicated to Tintoretto. His birthplace is celebrating with two major exhibitions from September 7, 2018 to January 6, 2019.

Shots of Neorealism: The Rebirth of Italy Through the Eyes of Photography

In Martin Scorsese’s words: “Neorealism is difficult to define. It is an impulse. It is a moment. It is an act of recovery and restoration. It is a source of inspiration, a fountain that never stops flowing.” Photography is the art form that, arguably more than any other, intertwines with the rise and fall of cinematographic Neorealism
