L’ultima regina
Nel regno di Elberas, dal matrimonio tra il principe Aurisio Kindreik e la figlia della Luna Menulis ha origine una stirpe dotata di poteri magici che si succede in linea femminile. Diverse generazioni dopo, la piccola principessa Estel, rimasta orfana, diventa regina a soli otto anni, affiancata dal principe Krales, suo fratello maggiore. La pace nel regno viene spezzata il giorno in cui Zirfis, la principessa oscura estromessa dal potere molti anni prima, ricompare e pone a Estel un ultimatum: la resa incondizionata e pacifica o la guerra. La regina sceglie di combattere e viene colpita a morte, ma la magia la riporta in vita. La situazione è incerta e pericolosa ed Estel, logorata da sentimenti contrastanti, si troverà di fronte a tre opzioni di futuro determinate dalle sue scelte. Perché non possono esservi due lune nello stesso cielo.

Putting Tradition into Practice: Heritage, Place and Design
This book gathers more than 150 peer-reviewed papers presented at the 5th INTBAU International Annual Event, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2017.

Entering the Picture
In 1970, Judy Chicago and fifteen students founded the groundbreaking Feminist Art Program (FAP) at Fresno State. Drawing upon the consciousness-raising techniques of the women's liberation movement, they created shocking new art forms depicting female experiences. Collaborative work and performance art – including the famous "Cunt Cheerleaders" – were program hallmarks. Moving to Los Angeles, the FAP produced the first major feminist art installation, Womanhouse (1972). Augmented by thirty-seven illustrations and color plates, this interdisciplinary collection of essays by artists and scholars, many of whom were eye witnesses to landmark events, relates how feminists produced vibrant bo...
Lucio Fontana
Lucio Fontana (1899–1968), a major figure of postwar European art, blurred numerous boundaries in his life and his work. Moving beyond the slashed canvases for which he is renowned, this book takes a fresh look at Fontana’s innovations in painting, drawing, ceramics, sculpture, and installation art. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 14.0px Verdana} Fontana was an important figure in both Italy and his native Argentina, where he pushed the painterly into the sculptural and redefined the relationship between mediums. Archival images of environments, public commissions, installations, and now-destroyed pieces accompany lavish illustrations of his work from 1930 to the late 1960s, providing a new approach to an artist who helped define the political, cultural, and technological thresholds of the mid-twentieth century.
A.C.I.: Painting, sculpture, works on paper, prints, contemporary media
Art Catalogue Index (A.C.I.) aims to provide a comprehensive list of all the catalogues raisonnés and reviews on artists born between 1780 and the postwar period. This first edition is focused on the so-called 'modern' period. It starts with the birth of Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, in 1780 in Montauban, who competed for the Prix de Rome in 1800 with his contemporaries; he therefore both witnessed and took part in this turning point in time which opened the gates of the 'modern' period, and which led up to today and contemporary art. Published with BFAS, Geneva, and Thierry Meaudre, Paris. English text.
