FATHER AND SON ISSUES: The Secret History of Spider-Man is the true story of someone with a great power, and a great responsibility.

Il entame des études de philologie à l'Université de Bruxelles tout en s'adonnant à sa passion pour la musique.

Grâce à cette amitié, Jan se sent enfin libre d'aimer qui il veut.

Kaffe Fassett has led an extraordinary life and is a captivating storyteller with a vivid memory. Born in 1937, he spent much of his youth in Big Sur, California, where his parents bought a cabin from Orson Welles and transformed it into the world-famous Nepenthe restaurant, a gathering place for artists and bohemians. After attending a boarding school run by the disciples of Krishnamurti, an Indian guru, he studied painting at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, then traveled to England, where he made his home.

'For myself/ I knew as soon as I could read and write/ That I must be a poet. Even today,/ When all the way from Cambridge comes a wind/ To blow the lamps out every time they're lit/ I know that I must light mine up again.' From his earliest boyhood memories of Highgate and Archibald, his old...

Le collaborazioni con Piero Angela e Enzo Jannacci, gli incontri con Mina e Matt Groening, il successo del Signor Rossi e quella notte degli Oscar in compagnia di Kim Basinger e un pirata... Con la complicità di Tempia, Bozzetto ripercorre le sue esperienze di creativo e regista - dai filmini adolescenziali sulle formiche del giardino di casa alla genesi di West and Soda e Vip, da Allegro non troppo fino a oggi -, intrecciandole ai momenti più formativi, divertenti e toccanti della sua vita, come quella volta che la stampa lo definì "meglio della Loren" o il giorno in cui ha scelto una pecora per amica.

LEONARDO DA VINCI es el genio visionario del Renacimiento por excelencia. Científico, artista e ingeniero, fue un acucioso observador que tomó a la naturaleza como maestra y, gracias a su comprensión de la luz y la perspectiva, pudo retratarla con una fidelidad revolucionaria para la época. Su gran imaginación le permitió anticiparse a incontables descubrimientos científicos y fantasear con un futuro que aterrizó en ingeniosos planos y bosquejos.

Wer früh abschaltet, hat also das Beste gehört. Vielleicht. Oder auch nicht. Ungekürzt gelesen von Julian Horeyseck und mit einem Vor- und Nachwort des Autors Jean-Remy von Matt.

Vincent Van Gogh arrived in the French capital on the last day of February 1886, a month short of his thirty-third birthday. He was a man beaten down by life, half-starved, and nearly broken psychologically. He was saved by his brother Theo, who provided him with room, board, and, most crucially, emotional support while he attempted to master the difficult craft of painting. Thus far, Vincent's crude scenes of peasant life rendered in murky shades of brown and gray were both hackneyed and amateurish.

Tout quitter du jour au lendemain pour aller chercher, seule, au fin fond de la Chine communiste, les secrets oubliés de l'art antique chinois, était-ce bien raisonnable ? Fabienne Verdier ne s'est pas posé la question : en ce début des années 80, la jeune et brillante étudiante des Beaux-Arts est comme aimantée par le désir d'apprendre cet art pictural et calligraphique dévasté par la Révolution culturelle. Et lorsque, étrangère et perdue dans la province du Sichuan, elle se retrouve dans une école artistique régie par le Parti, elle est déterminée à affronter tous les obstacles.

Nuremberg, 1945. As the trials of Nazi war criminals begin, some of the world's most famous writers and reporters gather in the ruined German city. Crammed together in the press camp at Schloss Faber-Castell, where reporters sleep ten to a room, complain about the food and argue in the lively bar, they each try to find words for the unprecedented events they are witnessing.

La pieza es analizada con exhaustividad, incluyendo todo lo conocido hasta ahora de ella y exponiendo nuevas hipótesis, valientes pero cimentadas en el amplio conocimiento que el autor tiene de la sociedad ibérica y, sobre todo, de su ritualidad y religiosidad. La escultura antropomorfa ibera supone uno de los componentes más importantes de la llamada cultura ibérica, que permite comprenderla integrada en un fenómeno mediterráneo que se desarrolló en determinados lugares de sus territorios costeros.
