I think it was in 2013, when I was living in Prague.
I was invited to the exhibition Fireflies in the dark, featuring drawings by Jewish children from the Theresienstadt concentration camp.
Often next to each drawing you could see a photograph of the young artist. GERTRUDA EISINGER was very beautiful.
ADOLF LOOS is one of the few Architekts in my hall of fame.
I first discovered his great talent during a trip to Prague in the late ’80s.
Later as a young architecture student in Venice, I focused all my studies on his work.
His love for classical architecture, together with his minimalism and modernism, had a strong influence on my cultural background and my personal style.
I love the clear lines, rigid interior spaces, flat roof terraces and the absence of any ornament and decoration that characterize all of his works.
I love shoulder-bags!
Short animation for the new T90 shoulder-bag, designed for SUPERLEGGERO.
The collection is available here . . .
Olympic games are not always a festival of happiness and sport.
In 1972, during the Olympische Sommerspiele in Munich, eight Arabs criminals, members of the Palestinian terrorist group Black September took eleven hostages, all members of the Israeli Olympic Team, and killed them. One hostage was castrated and abused after he was shot!
This is Islam, these are Arabs!
In all these years, and thanks to the Operation Wrath of God, the Mossad, the national intelligence agency of the State of Israel, killed more than 200 Palestinian terrorists, members of the Palestinian armed militant group Black September and operatives of the Palestine Liberation Organization.
Of the eight Arab criminals involved in the Munich massacre, only one is still escaping.
For how long?
Happy me!
Last week I found a trunk full of LETRASET EUROSTILE BOLD EXTENDED and MEDIUM EXTENDED.
This clean and futuristic typeface was designed by ALDO NOVARESE in 1962 and was largely used in the 70’s sci-fi movies and tv shows.
In the original STAR TREK tv series and movies, the font appears on the exterior of all Starfleet vessels and insignias worn by the crew.
The right type for intergalactic communications!
One of my favourite movie? Paris, Texas!
For the heartbreaking images of the Texas desert, for the heartbreaking neon signs of the motels, for the heartbreaking music composed by RY COODER, for the outstanding performances by HARRY DEAN STANTON and NASTASSJA KINSKI, and for the wonderful performance from DEAN STOCKWELL.
Exactly 40 years ago the film directed by WIM WENDERS and written by SAM SHEPARD was presented at the 37th Cannes Film Festival and won the Palme d’Or.
Now, 40 years later a 4K restored version of the film, supported by Chanel, has been premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Palme d’Or.
“Is four years a long time?”
