Throughout the pages, the book delicately presents still bodies in meticulously crafted…
It seems odd in these uncertain times to talk of an appreciation of beauty, but perhaps that’s our only hope of survival.

Anxiety is rising about how these problems can be reversed in whatever time we…

The Italian Cultural Institute in New York presents the exhibition Padua Postcards by Francesca Magnani. Julie Lasky wrote the following text.

Today, as an artist and teacher, I found by chance a…
