Sun in Libra ... you put the 3 in front, an important stage for all it seems. "At your age I was already Dad" the most common phrase of the old people, promptly reply, "At your age the mortgage for a house in the suburbs was 15 years of 40 hours" sign of changing times.
There are always rumors that run, pensions are insecure, now I know people who have done 10 years of insecurity among CoCoCo and scholarships, contributions are not minimum, absolute minimum .... and it is not people walking in the parks fuck, it's "brains", with doctoral researchers, who follow their careers hoping illusion of meritocracy.
Meritoche? In the "land of the head with painted hair" to put it through the eyes of an Englishman, with the President of the Republic with more Fidel Castro springs, maybe he could be present at the funeral of Vincent Groan ... rather than mentioning the situation here can not go further. There are limits, censored blogger, blogger arrested, blogger reported: I talk about travel, or what happens to me before, at the end of this area is a collage of information that anyone can find on the Internet independently, a bit 'colorful with my personal vision.
With these thoughts come down to the E45 , between Romagna and Umbria to exactly. I'm going where the parents are married long ago, the area is that of Spello-Assisi. But first a stop in the Town of Castle , going down the E45. This pseudo-road, at least these days, it takes from Cesena and is a classic 2-lane highway, sometimes there is the emergency one, with a limit of 90 km / h, run by ' ANAS. You see, because down the road patrols are stationed brigades are more than ready to do heavy fines for those who sgarra and goes beyond the limit.
The best way to "fool" the camera is to respect the limit, paying attention to the extent possible. It makes no sense to have been plucked ingastrirsi for the 150, go slowly, first share is the need to run ... time, time, all in a hurry? Who does not do so. At one point, Bagno di Romagna, that is not the sea but in full curves hills of Romagna, the situation is narrowed to one lane, with trucks that go slow and try to avoid the potholes, pardon the chasms, and at times almost stopping. This up to San Piero in Bagno, where gradually the situation returns to normal. What is certain is that more than 30 per hour does not ... With patience
within a city Castle, free parking in street Armando Diaz, a few steps away from the entrance in the center of Albizzini, where there is Foundation Alberto Burri. Half-empty, the building is beautifully restored, we start visiting the top floor in chronological order, starting from the earliest works. Usability (layout, lighting, layout etc.) is excellent. They are the work of "crazy" that the '50s gave the "Blacks", the cellotex, the famous "cracks", combustions, here's a bit 'of everything. Really important that there is due consideration, it is not so obvious that in the town that "gave birth" to an artist then do something to celebrate life.
Works are exhibited in the largest airport (if you have the car) ex-squeegee Tobacco ... Another example of how to do justice to the facilities given to abandonment. Burri was there to intervene directly, because the structure of "industrial" is ideal for holding his series of works that do not consider that the old winded never 'aVte. Just like in their time were not made between the artists 'true' various Correggio, Caravaggio, to name two with "c" but the list is really long.
In this city there is also a Art Gallery, in a neighborhood rather than degraded, full of pigeons scagazzano also known on the streets and a dirty syringe in plain view inside a blood vessel in front of the entrance to the stairs ... the visit is really nice, you get the impression, however, break the boxes to the ticket, there is nobody, and downstairs you can hear the footsteps of guardiasala upstairs, yells at you just tap the phone , terrified that you can take pictures. Remarkable the final beautiful works of Signorelli , and the section of modern art with sculptures of local Elmo Palazzi, then there is something between the various donations of Ottone Rosai, de Chirico, but also remember a really cold and humid ... not "inviting" them to stay. There is also a museum of shells, for the curiosity of children in the basement. O
Note on ' hotel booked at prices "rasp" on hotels.com , it is actually a campsite, nice if you are employed in the movements, otherwise it can only be reached with the bus not so frequent. Upon arrival we settled into one of the wooden houses of the trailer, complete with a "guest card" to me is fine, there is also the radiator if you want, blankets, the bathroom is private as if they were in a real hotel. 5 minutes from Assisi, where the day after finally back with a sensitivity just to watch the historic village and the great cycle of frescoes by Giotto in upper basilica. Leaves you speechless, I lose myself about half an hour later I get a bad neck from "ostrich", but just enough to recover, a visit to the crypt where they are kept bare the remains of the patron saint of Italy. Assisi is expensive, there are only a parking fee, low-cost alternative is to leave the car and then take away bus. The town is exactly as I remembered, restored, full of shops "fake" by hamlet Italic, tourists we are crazy.
visiting Perugia, the capital, is under an intermittent rain (ah, the arcades ...). Parking in the space in Via della Cupa gratuitissimo from there start the escalator to the center. Curious train- monorail from the station and go up in the center! It seems out of a plastic model, obviously read a lot of controversy surrounding its construction ... remarkable "guide to Perugia." It is to be drunk, the roads are often one-way, with sudden changes of slope, curves, junctions, exits hidden places such as "left, but not just to the left." Luckily I was the navigator, the city was trying to digest and thrown back into the highway.
Corso Vannucci, the main street, full of little shops and above sloping side of people is a constant coming and going. I slip the National Gallery of Umbria, I discover that tickets and art works are set in the town hall, the one with the Griffins at the door. Just go on the floors above, do not slip into some office and show ticket. There is a temporary
with issues of interest, is the first day of opening to the average person, I also spout Luca Beatrice in front of cameras explaining his plan to bring the "Theatre of Dreams " before our eyes. Very interesting, soft lighting, the works of Chagall (it's always his figure), Dali, Ernst, etc.. etc.. etc.. I hit the last room, the upstairs a bit 'hidden by the stairs just before the bookshop, pigeons glass of Jan Fabre
The Gallery's permanent collection focuses on Vannucci, of course ... the path is long and covers about 400 years of art history and neighboring Umbria: Part roughly sculptures by Arnolfo di Cambio (which is older than Dante, Socci!) until the seventeenth century with the Cavalier d'Arpino (which just Umbria is not, AO). When you exit, turn right and tuck in the College of Change: the intoxication of Perugino is completed, the recently restored frescoes are worth seeing. Worthy of note during my visit to the sclera in front of a big old bucket of Piero della Francesca (!!!), type room at the 5th, who loudly "I want uscireeee!"
With art you do not eat, but makes you hungry. And it's my birthday, I choose where you dine. The Farmhouse Malvarina , costs 30 € per person and what you eat "Maria kitchen." The old lady is a friend of my grandmother, played 83 years and also reveals a few tricks of the kitchen, someone revealed to the blog: instead of the fried onion, garlic oil and then season the sauce, the better to make the raw ingredients, cook them of course without adding anything other than water. As long as the ingredients we have them good, hugely popular in this campaign by the Americans, Belgians, Danes, who arrive via the Internet to learn Italian Life Style.
There is still time, with a beautiful autumn sun shining (back to short sleeves!) To see a show that I follow for a long time, the pop surrealism . What? It 's the most popular response. In fact I have to get up to
Spoleto, in the palace Collicola to see one of the first exhibition ever organized in Italy. It is not marked by any sign or advertising, I orient the map at the Info Point at the entrance to town, even in the square there are few signs, you get back, so quiet, secluded, anonymous. The visit of this extraordinary collection, which closes for a good 3 hours for lunch (13-16) is so fast. The show in question is on the top floor, you must exit the building and the ticket office up the stairs of the building Collicola. On top of a guardiasala staring at you as you enter and then get back to his week puzzles. The white walls refurbished, the smell of paint that has been given. These arguments are paradoxical, dreamy, that are represented. seem to see depictions of comic Lady Gaga tanned from the stage, rag dolls without a face, or monsters without eyes, teasing of famous paintings. I hook up a little 'what I can see the locations of psychotic fantasy films like "Pan's Labyrinth . Truly one of the best shows of the year 2010.
the ground floor there is a permanent contemporary art collection complete by Giacometti - Sol LeWitt (spectacular painted the whole room) - Leoncillo (not easily found), are fifteen rooms behind the bookshop. The first floor is a modern mix of old-type Castello di Rivoli. Smaller scale, of course, well maintained, however, the original decorations 700 contemporary works by placing the order so that we almost "punch" ...
If you are passing from Spoleto we mark the restaurant "Tre Fontane ", emerged from my memories of seven years ago, which saved me lunch and is still valid: home cooking, reasonable prices and bring "important"!
