Rome tip: Michelangelo for free!
2008-05-22 16:45:00 During his time in Rome, Michelangelo charged the ancient city with works of incredible beauty. His sculptures, frescoes, and architecture still inspire a city-wide love affair. And, his priceless work is on view at no cost to modern admirers. Angela K. Nickerson, author of A Journey into Michelangelo’s Rome, takes us on a very cheapo-friendly tour of Michelangelo’s Rome. The Sistine Chapel: (Viale del Vaticano, at the Vatican Museums)  The Sistine Chapel, the ceiling of which is known as Michelangelo’s lifetime achievement, is free and open to the public on the last Sunday of each month. As Goethe once wrote, “Until you have seen the Sistine Chapel, you have no adequate conception of what man is capable of accomplishing.” St. Peter’s Basilica: (Vatican City) Michelangelo’s Rome ‘Pieta’, the piece that cemented the 24-year-old’s reputation as a gifted sculptor, occupies a chapel just inside the church’s entra...

The Agony And The Extasy
2008-05-20 21:36:00 Every time I'm in Italy I pledge to dedicate myself to becoming a better person. You know, like stop reading trashy magazines and start reading Pico della Mirandola, stop treating my body like an amusement park and do more artsy stuff, stop thinking about my pathetic little existence and focus on the big issues of the humanity. (Of course, now I'm not in Italy, so I have already broken some of my commandments, but what the hell, I'm human.) If you never travelled to Italy, do yourself a favour and go there. For centuries it used to be the center of the world, not only politically, but culturally. Just don't take your mother with you! She'll keep complaining there's too much to walk, her back hurts, her feet are swollen, her nylons have a hole, you're doing it on purpose to irritate her (whatever it is that you're doing), there are no taxis in Venice, unless you count the fucking gondolas, too much water, etc. But, I learned to ignore it.Chances are, wherever you h...

Florence: A visit with Michelangelo
2008-05-12 16:09:00 Michelangelo Buonarroti was born outside of Florence in 1475. Though he spent much of his life working in Rome, he loved Florence and considered it his home. Many of his greatest works still reside in Florence, and Florentines are exceedingly proud of their native son. Although visiting the city can get pricey, many of Michelangelo’s treasures- can be experienced cheaply, or for free! Angela K. Nickerson, author of A Journey into Michelangelo’s Rome, takes us on a budget-friendly tour of Michelangelo’s Florence. Michelangelo in the Museums The Bargello: Via del Proconsolo, 4  Perhaps the best bargain in Florence, the Bargello is a small museum with an amazing collection of sculpture, all for one of the lowest museum prices in Florence (€4). Here Michelangelo’s Bacchus holds court alongside his Brutus. Bacchus was Michelangelo’s first commission in Rome, and it failed to meet his patron’s approval because he depicted the god of ...

The Michelangelo Code
2008-05-06 05:57:00 We've all had quite enough of that Da Vinci guy this decade - but now a new book suggests that Michelangelo also hid messages in his artwork, most notoriously in the Sistine Chapel Fresco. In the book The Sistine Secrets: Michelangelo's Forbidden Messages in the Heart of the Vatican. (Amazon US and UK), authors Roy Doline and Rabbi Benjamin Blech claim... ...that Michelangelo embedded powerful and even dangerous messages in the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel, that he encoded these messages using his knowledge of mystic Jewish texts and that he intended some images as insults to the pope. ...According to Doliner and Blech, Kabbalah is the key to cracking the code of many of Michelangelo's hidden messages. But their first clue didn't come from an art historian. Rather, it came from a tourist from Indiana who looked up at the famous panel of "The Creation of Adam," and was reminded of something else. "In the late 1970s, a surgeon went into the Sistine Chapel, took a look at this [f...

John Adams Concludes, The Tudors Continues, The First Amendment Abides
2008-04-21 07:01:00 A fabulous, instructive night for history on cable television - John Adams, the splendid mini-series, concluded on HBO, and The Tudors, the magnificent, searing series, continued with its second season on Showtime.The last episode of John Adams was mostly personal, and very powerful. Adams' daughter dies of breast cancer. Abigail dies. And Thomas Jefferson and John Adams die on the same day, July 4, 1826, after they have reconciled via letters.What was mostly at dispute between them was freedom of speech and communication, and the First Amendment. Adams, early in the hour, complains that all he'll be remembered for is signing the Alien and Sedition Acts - the closest our nation has ever come to abrogating the First Amendment.Its importance was wrenchingly, brilliantly portrayed in the two episodes (4 and 5) of The Tudors I saw tonight (on Showtime On Demand). Thomas More resists the law that Parliament passed on behalf of Henry, proclaiming him the ultimate religious authori...

The Sistine Chapel was created 500 years ago by Michelangelo... or was it?
2008-01-27 09:21:00 It's anniversary time. The genesis of the Greatest Work of Art Ever, Anywhere ? so popular that the curators of the Vatican Museums have made seeing it insanely complicated and expensive in an effort to reduce the crowds ? began 500 years ago this spring, when Pope Julius II persuaded a reluctant Michelangelo Buonarroti to take on the painting of the Sistine Chapel ceiling. But even before the festivities can properly begin, they have been overshadowed by the return of an ancient controversy.

Michelangelo Biography
2008-01-23 20:05:00 Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni was an Italian Renaissance man best known for his art and sculpture. How he is best known often depends on whom you ask and their particular interests in the arts. Those enthralled by sculpture would immediately conjure images of his David, whereas those enticed by his painting would think of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel or his Last Judgment. Michelangelo was born in Caprese in 1475, the second son to a magistrate. As a young man he served as an apprentice in both painting and sculpture until he gained the attention of Lorenzo de Medici, whose school he thereafter attended and for whom he completed commissioned works of art such as Madonna of the Steps and Battle of the Centaurs. After a series of travels during which he was commissioned to sculpt Bacchus and Pieta, Michelangelo returned to Florence as the 15th century ended, his reputation having grown, and was commissioned to make what is now his most famous sculpture, David.

41. Italian director Michelangelo Antonioni's US film "Zabriskie Point" (19
2007-08-05 13:13:00 When I saw the film for the first time in the early 1970s, I was in awe of this film. Visually, it was stunning and the events on campuses in Europe and USA made you relate with what Antonioni was trying to say so well visually in the final 15 minutes of the movie: blowing up in your mind the "tyrannical" establishments and big business interests. It was a not so veiled comment on American values. Antonioni was probably affected by the popular French student uprising in the Sixties, led by Daniel Cohn-Bendit.The repeated blowing up of the beautiful house in the middle of a desert, the lead female character enjoying the natural stream of cold water, painting an aircraft in psychedelic designs (even the staid British Airways did it a few years ago) are some of the images that were copied by advertising personnel all over the world for decades. Even Pink Floyd increased their fan following after the film was released.You see this film some 30 years later and you begin to wonder why the...

Michelangelo Fournier e le violenze nel G8 di Genova 2001, Cronaca & Attual
2007-07-02 09:32:00 Autore: CARLO BONINI Oggetto: Michelangelo Fournier e le violenze nel G8 di Genova 2001 Inviato: Lun Lug 02, 2007 6:32 pm (GMT 11) Michelangelo Fournier, 44 anni, vicequestore aggiunto del primo reparto mobile della polizia di Stato, lo dice tutto di un fiato, con una robusta stretta di mano e un sorriso sornione. "Sai che c'è? Mannaggia a me, alla mia "fissa" per la storia del '900 e a quella frase". "Mannaggia" dunque a Ferruccio Parri e alla "macelleria messicana". E non perché la notte del 22 luglio 2001, a Genova, non sia stata una macelleria. Anzi. "Alla "Diaz", come diciamo a Roma, c'è stata la schifezza". "Mannaggia" perché in quattordici giorni quell'espressione gli ha ribaltato la vita una seconda volta. Subito dopo averla pronunciata, se ne era partito per New York con la moglie. Martedì scorso, al suo ritorno in caserma, ha trovato un nuovo capo della polizia, il vecchio con un avviso di garanzia e una vocina a fargli un altro po' di deserto intorno: "Fournier ...

Michelangelo was an intriguing individual and artist. He was multi talented, a painter, sculptor, poet, architect and engineer, an artist that did not just concentrate on one art or one subject.When I first studied art, he was my inspiration to paint many subjects, not choose what to paint, but to just paint what I felt at that moment in time. Some say that not to stick with one subject, confuses the public. I say if God has blessed us is with the power, the skill and the means then we should seek the opportunity to paint all of his beautiful creations.I will be presenting other partials of this painting.A Painting A Day Objets d' Art by k.

Receipt hints Michelangelo had room at Basilica
2007-03-01 18:31:01 A 450-year-old receipt has provided proof that Michelangelo kept a private room in St. Peter’s Basilica while working as the pope’s chief architect, Vatican experts said. While going through the basilica archives for an exhibit on the 500th anniversary of the church last year, researchers came across an entry for a key to a chest “in the room in St. Peter’s where Master Michelangelo retires.” The Renaissance painter and sculptor whose frescoes adorn the ceiling of the Sistine chapel in the Vatican was put in charge of the restoration of St. Peter’s Basilica by Pope Paul III at age 71 in 1546, a job he held until his death in 1564. Michelangelo’s greatest contribution to the basilica was his design for the central dome or cupola, a universally acknowledged architectural triumph. “We now know that Michelangelo definitely had a private space in the basilica,” said Maria Cristina Carlo-Stella, who runs the Fabbrica di San Pietro, t...

The Brilliant Lessons of Michelangelo
2007-02-28 18:16:01 By Tom Russell The artist Michelangelo often stirred up the opposition of the contemporary artists of his day. Many of them envied his magnificent abilities. One example was the architect Bramante. Pope Julius retained Michelangelo to build him a splendid tomb. Michelangelo gladly accepted the project and spent eight months in a marble pit personally cutting and selecting the most perfect stones. When he returned, he found the pope had second thoughts. Bramante had turned Pope Julius against the project. The Pope cancelled it. Later the idea for another special project entered the Pope's mind. Bramante saw the project as a time consuming trap for which there would be little public recognition. Bramante recommended Michelangelo for the job. The great artist saw the trap. He knew what Bramante was up to. He wished to turn the project down but did not want to refuse the Pope's request. So Michelangelo went to work. He spent many years doing the slow and tedious labor the project...
