The Little Shadows revolves around three sisters in the world of vaudeville before and during the First World War. We follow the lives of all three in turn: Aurora, the eldest and most beautiful, who is 16 when the book opens; thoughtful Clover, a year younger; and the youngest sister, joyous headstrong sprite Bella, who is 13. The girls, overseen by their fond but barely coping Mama, are forced to make their living as a singing act after the untimely death of their father. They begin with little besides youth and hope, but slowly and steadily evolve into true artists.

Sie hat die Grenzen der Kunst gesprengt: sich gepeitscht, mit einer Glasscherbe ein Pentagramm in den Bauch geritzt, ein Messer in die Finger gerammt. Sie ist 2500 Kilometer auf der Chinesischen Mauer gegangen, zwölf Jahre in einem umgebauten Citroën-Bus durch die Welt gefahren und hat ein Jahr bei den Aborigines in Australien gelebt. Spätestens seit "The Artist is Present" - ihrer berühmten Performance 2010 im New Yorker Museum of Modern Art - gilt Marina Abramović in der ganzen Welt als Kultfigur.

Close to Hugh is a glorious, exuberant, poignant comic novel about youth and age, art and life, love and death - and about losing your mind and finding your heart's desire over the course of seven days one September. As the week opens, 50-something Hugh Argylle, owner of the Argylle Art Gallery, has a jarring fall from a ladder - a fall that leaves him with a fractured off-kilter vision of his own life and the lives of his friends, who are going through crises that leave them despairing and afraid.

Camillo Benso conte di Cavour si spegne il 6 giugno 1861 a Torino, a soli 51 anni, dopo una settimana di dolori, vomito quotidiano e febbre altissima, lasciando dietro di sé una schiera di medici increduli e un sottile sospetto che si aggira nei salotti della neonata Italia: potrebbe trattarsi di avvelenamento? Analizzando il ruolo che ebbero le persone a lui più vicine, questo saggio biografico dal taglio quasi poliziesco utilizza diari, lettere e testimonianze dell'epoca per ricreare gli eventi che in soli otto giorni portarono all'inaspettata morte di Cavour.

Cv/VAR 154 publishes a study of photography and art in which authors Marina Vaizey and Anne Blood consider the historical impact of photography from pioneers Hill and Adamson, William Fox Talbot, and Louis Daguerre to contemporary practitioners such as Andreas Gursky and Boris Mikhailov.

Una serie TV può cambiare la percezione di intere nazioni su tematiche sociali, scientifiche, politiche, relazionali, dando voce a persone che nella nostra società sono ancora invisibili, a cui non viene mai data la parola. Il merito di Marina Pierri è la capacità di mettere insieme mondi che fanno fatica a parlarsi: quello del femminismo intersezionale e quello della psicologia del profondo. In "Eroine", Marina Pierri prende il testimone da una vasta letteratura filosofica, cinematografica e psicologica, e compie un'operazione ancora inedita.

We are living in a time of massive, unbelievable, and relentless change. To put it bluntly, we are living in the period of the most rapid change ever seen by humanity. And, if the past is any indication of the future, this pace of change will only continue to accelerate more and more in the coming years. Technologies like artificial intelligence, robotic process automation (RPA), autonomous vehicles, and bioengineered food (just to name a few) have the potential to dramatically transform our world for the better.

La sua storia comincia proprio il 6 agosto del 1945, quando il lancio di "Little Boy" su Hiroshima la colpisce ancora bambina e la sfigura nel profondo, lì dove risiede la storia di un corpo e la promessa di una maternità.

August 6, 1945: the day Enola Gay unleashed an atomic inferno over Hiroshima. In the wake of its devastation, two stories unfold.

And there’s H, a Japanese child who is at school when the bomb drops and is indelibly marked by its destruction.
