  5. Roberto Diagos „Hombres Libres“ im Kuba-Pavillon in der Via Garibaldi: Rost, Holz und Farben erzählen von Freiheit und Geschichte. Abstrakte Köpfe, die Geschichten atmen.

  6. Postkarten, Gongs und ein kleiner Würfel

    Ausgewählte Arbeiten auf der Biennale 2026 In minor keys, also in Moll, präsentiert sich die 61. Internationale Kunstausstellung, doch wie wir von Beethovens "Schicksalsmotiv" wissen, kann die ganz schön laut und bedrohlich sein. Das gilt für die Kunstwerke ebenso wie für die Proteste auf den Straßen Venedigs und natürlich für das Gelände der Biennale. Fremdwortbetriebene Überblicke von Kunstsachverständigen und Anlageexperten gibt es ohnehin genug, wir beschränken uns daher auf […]

  12. Main sources for early Venice

    The primary sources for the early history of Venice are — in the nature of things — manuscripts written in Latin, and sometimes in Greek.

    They are not easy to approach.

    Many are published, and some translated, which is a help for those of us who are not trained medievalists, and, luckily, more and more manuscripts are now digitised, for those who want to see the real thing.

    This is a quick overview of the main sources to early Venetian history, with links and references to where they can be found, printed or online, in the original and translated.

  17. "View of the Grand Canal and the Dogana," Bernardo Bellotto, 1743.

    Bellotto (1721-80) was the nephew of the great Venetian artist Canaletto, and learned painting at his guidance, so there's a lot of stylistic overlap here. In fact, sometimes he was known as Canaletto, which has led to some confusion and his work being credited to his more famous uncle.

    Bellotto, though, is known for his darker color schemes, elaborately rendered buildings, and for his skill with depicting light and shadow; some think he used a camera obscura to get the right effects. He's also felt to have been influenced by Dutch painting of the era, as there's a certain resemblance.

    This type of painting is called a "vedute," meaning it's a view or cityscape, usually of Venice. Vedute were often produced to sell to wealthy tourists...as it's known that Bellotto, and his uncle, did. It's odd to think that something so exquisitely rendered, so detailed and labor-intensive, was basically a souvenir for some rich person. So here's a travel hint....patronize a local artist when you're on vacation! You may end up with a souvenir that your family will treasure for centuries!

    From the Getty Museum, Los Angeles.

  18. Today's poem:

    Venice
    - by Herman Melville

    With Pantheist energy of will

    The little craftsman of the Coral Sea

    Strenuous in the blue abyss,

    Up-builds his marvellous galleryAnd long arcade,

    Erections freaked with many a fringeOf marble garlandry,

    Evincing what a worm can do.p>

    Laborious in a shallower wave,Advanced in kindred art,

    A prouder agent proved Pan’s might

    When Venice rose in reefs of palaces.

    Indeed - thanks!
    "'Venice and the Mongols' challenges conventional perspectives on the Mongols as mere agents of destruction and shows how Venice ushered in a new era of commerce and diplomacy in an interconnected medieval world."
