“BVLGARI: the Story, the Dream”, Three Generations of an Iconic Family of Jewelers

The decadence of “Hollywood on the Tiber” played a crucial part in transforming the image of Italy from that of a struggling country, into a glamorous industrial power. It also gave Rome new appeal, thanks also to its fashion houses and artisanry, and not least for the contributions of the Bulgari jewelers. Starting in the 1950s the Eternal City returned to being the cradle of art and history, but also the center of glamour—a resource for at least the next forty years.

Alessandra Ferri at La Scala with Virginia Woolf: This Ballet Changed My Life

Delicate, seemingly fragile, she is nevertheless extremely strong, almost always on pointe, in McGregor’s frequently audacious choreographic style. Ferri is the protagonist in two of the three parts that comprise the Woolf Works ballet. The first part, I Now, I Then, opens with the only existing recording in Virginia Woolf’s own voice, stored in the BBC’s archives since 1937. Related to her essay On Craftmanship, her words are well-articulated: “How can we combine the old words in a new order so they survive, so they create beauty, so that they tell the truth? That is the question.”

Turning the First 30 Years of “Bordighera Press” Into 30 More Years to Come

“The Italian literary establishment...tends to only recognize things within [Italy], and anything else outside of Italy is not really ‘Italian literature’—it’s just sort of ‘stuff.’ And we thought, you know what, there’s a lot of ‘stuff’ out there.”
