Antonio, 45 anni, avvocato con una vita irreprensibile, sposato da 23 anni con Giulia e un figlio di 20, Matteo. Dopo anni di politica "passiva", decide di scendere in campo per le elezioni politiche comunali, con un partito di estrema destra. Tradizionalista all'eccesso, è un fermo sostenitore della famiglia tradizionale, reputa l'omosessualità un'indecenza ed è fermamente convinto che sia una malattia alla stregua del cancro e della malaria. Diego è uno scrittore e giornalista, attivista in vari gruppi per i diritti umani e omosessuale. Incontra Matteo per caso in un bar e dopo uno scambio di battute se ne innamora, iniziando così una relazione turbolenta quanto sensuale e passionale. L'avvocato non sa di questa relazione, l'unica a saperlo è la mamma di Matteo. In una veloce escalation di situazioni, incontri e scontri, i due protagonisti si affronteranno a viso aperto e senza esclusioni di colpi. Prefazione di Pasquale Ferro.

The papers in this volume were presented at the CATS international technical art history conference Trading Paintings and Painters' Materials 1550-1800 which explored international markets for paintings and artists' materials in the early modern period and their implications for artistic production. Questions central to these papers include: did preferences exist for artists' materials and paintings from specific geographical areas in particular places and if so why? How did the import of painting materials and artworks impact local production, connoisseurship and art theory? In what conditions were these artists' materials and finished artworks produced and traded in early modern Europe and beyond? The lavishly illustrated contributions in this volume deal with the above questions and shed light on different trades, products, countries and timeframes by combining a large variety of methods and sources, including visual analyses, written sources, pigment analyses and archaeological excavations. This fourth CATS Proceedings will be of interest to scholars and students, museum professionals, curators, conservators, art historians and conservation scientists.
