Memorial: December 15
Saint Virginia Centurione Bracelli was born on 2 April 1587 in Genoa, Italy. Daughter of Giorgio Centurione, an imposing and controlling individual who became the Doge of Genoa, and Lelia Spinola. Raised in a pious family, she felt drawn to religious life as a child. However, due to family position she agree to an arranged marriage to Gasparo Grimaldi Bracelli on 10 December 1602. He was a drinker, a gambler, and though the couple had two daughters, Lelia and Isabella, he was little of a father or husband. Virginia was widowed on 13 June 1607 after five years of marriage, aged 20, and with two small children.
Virginia moved in with her in-laws, cared for her children, and dedicated her free time to prayer and charity. When her daughters were grown and married, Virginia devoted herself entirely to caring for the sick, aged, and abandoned children. In late 1624 and early 1625 war in the region led to many orphans, some whom Virginia took in and cared for, and she worked with refugees in the town. When her mother-in-law died in August 1625, Virginia poured herself into the work, turning her house into a refuge and founding the Centro Signore della Misericordia Protettrici dei Poveri di Gesù Cristo
Her house was overrun with the needy during a plague and famine in 1629-1630. To house them all Virginia rented the vacant convent of Monte Calvario and moved her charges there in 1631. Due to crowding, extra housing was built in 1634, Virginia was soon caring for 300 patients, and in 1635 she received official government recognition for her hospital. Virginia worked closely with the young women in her houses, teaching them religion and ways to earn a living.
The expenses of Monte Calvario were excessive, so Virginia bought two villas and started construction of a church dedicated to Our Lady of Refuge. It became the mother church of the Institution, whose Rule was written between 1644 and 1650 and which was divided into two congregations: Suore di Nostra Signora del Rifugio di Monte Calvario (Sisters of Our Lady of Refuge in Mount Calvary) and Figlie di Nostra Signora al Monte Calvario (Daughters of Our Lady on Mount Calvary). When the group of Protectors, the superiors and governors of the Institute was selected in 1641, Virginia retired from administration, working as the humblest sister, doing chores on the grounds and begging for alms for the Institute.
Sadly, though the Institute was a success, healing the sick, educating children, training adults, and helping the dissolute return to productive lives, assistance, personal and financial, began to decline. Without the chance to work with Virginia, many of the middle and upper class did not participate, fearing the poor and rough residents. Though her health was failing, Virginia returned to active administrative duties. She worked for general spiritual development throughout the region, working for the choice of the Blessed Virgin Mary as patron of the republic of Genoa in 1637, for the institution of the Forty Hours' Devotion in 1642, and the revival of home missions in 1643. She acted as peacemaker between noble houses, and aided in the reconciliation of Church and Republic authorities in 1647, ending a dispute caused by the government abandoning support of the Institute. Virginia continued working up to the end of her days, and in later years received the gifts of visions and interior locutions.
Virginia died on 15 December 1651 in Genoa, Italy of natural causes. She was Canonized on 18 May 2003 by Pope John Paul II at St. Peter's Basilica.
PRAYER
O God,
You call to reign with You

in her earthly life

the gift of serving the church and the World
generously,
give us the strength to imitate her

and in the charity towards the poor and needy
brothers.
For Christ Our Lord.
Amen

On Saturday evening, 03/26, I was invited by my dear friend, Anna, to conduct a Saints & Holy Relics Presentation for several close friends of hers from various parts of our island, including our hometown of Kailua. Over 25 people showed up, with many of them being seasoned members of our Catholic community.
I displayed 9 Holy Relics for the presentation, which included my sliver of wood from the True Cross, and Holy Relics from St. Annibale di Francia, St. Bernadette Soubirous, Bl. Maria Repetto, Bl. Maria Stella & Companion Martyrs of Nowogrodek, Bl. Peter Friedhofen, St. Padre Pio, St. Virginia Centurione Bracelli, and the "Ex Camisia" of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
All who participated appeared to be touched by the presence of the Holy Relics, and at least two woman reported smelling the fragrance of incense, on and off, throughout the presentation - an unsusual phenomena that I interpret to signify the presence of Jesus. All praises be to God. (Please see the Comments Section for additional photos)
+ A Testimony from Mrs. C. Izuo:
"Thanks, Peter. Your presentation was really inspiring. The smell of incense was not a constant one. It came and went. It was not overpowering but a pleasant fragrance."

during the 1930'z, dalí continued his creative search for new wayz to express himself artisitcally. he developed a friendship with jean-michel frank, a renowned parisian furniture-maker and decoractor of the time. together they collaborated on several ideaz, transformin everyday practical objectz into onez of indeterminate use. the combination of which was a surreal room which was originally laid out in the london home of dalí'z great patron, edward james.
the emblematic piece in the livin room is the vis-a-vis sofa, or the confident, well named for itz shape and purpose, which encouragez private conversation and exchange: as it happenz, the surrealistic loverz' conversation par excellence, the one between dalí and gala.
other objectz include a series of floor lampz, the bracelli lamp - which form was inspired by the venus of milo - the drawer lamp and the crutches lamp, with their twisted, languid and almost tortured geometric formz which are so characteristic of dalí'z figuration. the leda coffee table, so heavy and hard to move, contrast with the slender curved legz in all itz feminine and expressive form.
these are dalí'z objectz - tablez, lampz, and seatz converted into special objectz. extravagant and mind-bogglin objectz which have lost all functional value but still retain their highly symbolic aspect.

Plywood Low Table, 1950
Carlo Mollino
Varnished moulded maple plywood, safety glass, brass
Mollino designed this low table for the living room of Casa Orengo in Turin, one of his first interior commissions. Its shape is strongly suggestive of a table in Dali's 1935 painting Femme à tête de roses.
Bracelli Standing Lamp, 2019 edition of 1937 design
Salvador Dali
Gold-plated wood, fabric shade
Interior designer Jean-Michel Frank commissioned this lamp design from Dali in 1937. Its elegant lines and luxurious finish were in keeping with Frank's aesthetic but he considered it too unusual for the market at that time. The lamp was first manufactured in 2009.

Objects of Desire: Surrealism and Design 1924-Today
(October 2022 – February 2023)
Delve into the dreamlike relationship between Surrealism and design in this century spanning celebration of Surrealist objects of desire.
Curated with Vitra Design Museum, the exhibition explores design from the birth of surrealism in 1924 to the current day; spanning classic Surrealist works of art and design as well as contemporary Surrealist responses.
The exhibition uncovers how one of the 20th century's most influential movements came to impact design through its questioning of the conventional and its commitment to exploring the mind, unconscious and mystical.
It brings together the best in Surrealist design, from furniture, interior design, fashion, photography and world-renowned artworks from Surrealist pioneers such as Salvador Dalí, Dora Maar, Man Ray, Leonora Carrington and Lee Miller, through to contemporary artists and designs, such as Schiaparelli, Dior, Björk.
The result is an exhibition filled with playful, curious and poetic objects that uncover the rich history of Surrealism and its fascinating influence on design.
