Stiletto D'oro
Prologue Ft. Lauderdale, Florida is a waterfront city that has long been a playground for the rich and famous. Million dollar homes nestle alongside multi-million dollar estates, all of which are built along interconnecting waterways. It is a city where boats number in the tens of thousands. Naturally, such a concentrated abundance of wealth has served to upstart a vast number of waterfront cafes and bars from which party goers and fine diners alike may watch the nightly parade of expensive yachts as they transient the Intracoastal Waterway. It is a parade of affluence and decadence at its finest. The Gold Coast of Florida is an area where wealth goes beyond measurement and is perpetual. The...

A brief History of Palazzo Grimani dall’Albero d’Oro in Venice
Palazzo Grimani dall’Albero d’Oro opens its doors to culture, art and all those who wish to discover the history of this sumptuous building on the Grand Canal. The book offers a fascinating journey through time, the city and the lives of the illustrious guests who have lived in this patrician residence. With a personal “ narrated” tour and a narrative that never loses sight of scientific rigour, the authors take us through the magnificent rooms in a journey that weaves together, with careful reconstruction, the history of the families and collections once hosted in the palazzo. Massimo Favilla has taught Urban and Territorial Design at the IUAV University of Venice and the History of Architecture at the University of Padua. Ruggero Rugolo is responsible for publishing at the Istituto Veneto di Scienze, Lettere ed Arti and has taught the History of Modern Art at the University of Modena and Reggio and at Ca’ Foscari University in Venice. Their studies focus on Veneto art, in particular of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and have led to the publication of numerous monographs, conference proceedings, exhibition catalogues and articles in academic journals.
Making a Great Exhibition
“It never occurred to me while growing up that art is an industry involving countless jobs, so if this book helps shed light to just one kid that it is a viable career option, then it has done its job, as art is indescribably important!” —Oliver Jeffers, Artist and Illustrator “This book so beautifully explains to kids what goes into making an art exhibition. It’s not just about an artist hanging something on a wall for people to see: it’s so much more lively, layered, and community-driven. Even I learned a ton about what truly goes into a fantastic art show!” —Joy Cho, Author and Founder of Oh Joy! “I wish I’d had this book when I was a kid! I always wanted my art to be ...
The Stranger At The Palazzo D'oro And Other Stories
"This is my only story. Now that I am sixty I can tell it." He, the narrator, was a twenty-one-year-old art student traveling the world. She was a countess -- apparently cold, haughty, and inaccessible -- traveling with Haroun, her ambiguous companion. When the young man makes their acquaintance at a hotel in Sicily, he finds himself filled with unexpected lust and playing a part in something he doesn't quite understand. Filled with Theroux's typically effortless but devastating descriptions of people and places, The Stranger at the Palazzo d'Oro is a brilliant portrayal of aging and decay, a shocking tale of sensuality in a golden age. The thrill and risk of pursuit and desire mark the accompanying stories of the sexual awakening and rites of passage of a Boston boyhood, the ruin of a writer in Africa, and the bewitchment of a retiree in Hawaii. This is Paul Theroux at his most allusive and wise, writing with a deep understanding of the frailties of men and boys.
