"Trionfo della Morte" a Pisa sul palco di Piazza Cavalieri - Università, Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa
Tedesco di nascita (Hannover, 14 dicembre 1965), irpino d'origine (il padre, Vito, è di Calitri, la madre, Antonietta, di Andretta) ed emiliano d'adozione (tra Reggio, Parma e Modena), Vinicio Capossela ha conosciuto la dura gavetta dell'emigrante, facendo del randagismo una filosofia di vita.
Miglior cantautore italiano della sua generazione, Vinicio Capossela è ormai un menestrello onnivoro e globale, che ha assorbito suoni e culture di ogni angolo del mondo.
“Ballate per uomini e bestie” è un’opera di grande forza espressiva che guarda alle pestilenze del nostro presente travolto dalla corruzione del linguaggio, dal neoliberismo, dalla violenza e dal saccheggio della natura. In un’epoca in cui il mondo occidentale sembra affrontare un nuovo medioevo inteso come sfiducia nella cultura e nel sapere e smarrimento del senso del sacro, Capossela sceglie di pubblicare un canzoniere che, evocando un medioevo fantastico fatto di bestie estinte, creature magiche, cavalieri erranti, fate e santi, mette in mostra le similitudini e il senso di attualità che lo legano profondamente alle cronache dell’oggi.
"Il racconto e il canto divengono strumento per tentare un riavvicinamento al sacro e alle bestie, indispensabile punto di accesso al mistero della natura, anche umana".

"Triumph of Death" in Pisa on the stage of Piazza Cavalieri - University, Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa
German by birth (Hanover, 14 December 1965), originally from Irpinia (his father, Vito, is from Calitri, his mother, Antonietta, from Andretta) and an Emilian by adoption (between Reggio, Parma and Modena), Vinicio Capossela has known the hard apprenticeship of the emigrant, making stray dogs a life philosophy.
Best Italian singer-songwriter of his generation, Vinicio Capossela is now an omnivorous and global minstrel, who has absorbed sounds and cultures from every corner of the world.
"Ballads for men and beasts" is a work of great expressive power that looks at the plagues of our present overwhelmed by the corruption of language, neoliberalism, violence and the plundering of nature. In an era in which the western world seems to face a new Middle Ages understood as a distrust of culture and knowledge and loss of the sense of the sacred, Capossela chooses to publish a songbook that, evoking a fantastic Middle Ages made of extinct beasts, magical creatures, knights wandering, fairies and saints, it shows the similarities and the sense of actuality that binds him deeply to the chronicles of today.
"The story and the song become an instrument to attempt a rapprochement with the sacred and the beasts, an indispensable access point to the mystery of nature, even human".

"Ho letto millanta storie di cavalieri erranti,
di imprese e di vittorie dei giusti sui prepotenti
per starmene ancora chiuso coi miei libri in questa stanza
come un vigliacco ozioso, sordo ad ogni sofferenza.
Nel mondo oggi più di ieri domina l'ingiustizia,
ma di eroici cavalieri non abbiamo più notizia;
proprio per questo, Sancho, c'è bisogno soprattutto
d'uno slancio generoso, fosse anche un sogno matto:
vammi a prendere la sella, che il mio impegno ardimentoso
l'ho promesso alla mia bella, Dulcinea del Toboso,
e a te Sancho io prometto che guadagnerai un castello,
ma un rifiuto non l'accetto, forza sellami il cavallo !
Tu sarai il mio scudiero, la mia ombra confortante
e con questo cuore puro, col mio scudo e Ronzinante,
colpirò con la mia lancia l'ingiustizia giorno e notte,
com'è vero nella Mancha che mi chiamo Don Chisciotte..."
( da"Don Chisciotte" di Francesco Guccini)

"I have read a thousand stories of wandering knights,
of businesses and victories of the righteous over the bullies to stay still closed with my books in this room
like an idle coward, deaf to all suffering.
In the world today more than yesterday injustice dominates,but we have no news of heroic knights;
for this reason, Sancho, there is a need above all
of a generous impetus, were it also a crazy dream:
go get me the saddle, that my daring commitment
I promised it to my beauty, Dulcinea del Toboso,
and I promise you Sancho that you will earn a castle,
but I don't accept a refusal, come on saddle the horse!
You will be my squire, my comforting shadow
and with this pure heart, with my shield and Ronzinante,
with my spear I will strike injustice day and night,
how true is it in the Mancha my name is Don Chisciotte..."
(from "Don Chisciotte" by Francesco Guccini)

Palazzo della Carovana (also Palazzo dei Cavalieri) is a palace in Knights' Square, Pisa, Italy, presently housing the main building of the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa.
It was built in 1562–1564 by Giorgio Vasari for the headquarters of the Knights of St. Stephen, as a renovation of the already existing Palazzo degli Anziani ("Palace of the Elders"). The name, meaning "Palace of the Convoy", derives from the three-year period undertaken by the initiates of the Order for their training, called "la Carovana".
The façade is characterized by a complex scheme with graffiti representing allegorical figures and zodiacal signs, designed by Vasari himself and sculpted by Tommaso di Battista del Verrocchio and Alessandro Forzori, coupled to busts and marble crests. The current paintings date however to the 19th-20th centuries.
Amongst the sculptures are the Medici Coat of Arms and that of the Knights, flanked by the allegories of Religion and Justice by Stoldo Lorenzi (1563). The upper gallery of busts of the Grand Dukes of Tuscany (who were all also the Grand Masters of the Order) were added in the late 16th-early 18th centuries, sculpted by Ridolfo Sirigatti, Pietro Tacca and Giovan Battista Foggini.
The double-ramp staircase was remade in 1821. The rear area is a modern addition (1928–1930) for the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa. Some halls of the interior house 16th-century paintings.
This rather odd building has still not received the attention it deserves from architectural Historians. Building 1515-1530. Was intended to be used by the chapter of the Knights.

While we visited Montescaglioso we stayed at the lovely B&B Foresteria dell'Abbazia sandwiched between Piazza del Popolo to the front and Piazza Cavalieri di Vittorio Venetoto in the rear, a better location I believe would be hard to find. This shot of the Chiesa Madre dei SS. Pietro e Paolo or Mother Church of Montescaglioso dedicated to St Peter and Paul was taken on the steps leading to the B&B main entrance from the parking lot and yesterdays shot was from the front.
There existed a parish church here as early as 1310 but seismic events and centuries of use saw the church start to fall into disrepair during the 16th and 17th centuries, that coupled with a massive population growth prompted the need for a new church in this location. In 1776 it was determined that the old church could not be restored the new church building was entrusted to the designer Agostino Gimma from Bari who constructed a three-nave plan with large apses and a dome at the intersection of the transept.
In those days construction projects usually lasted much longer than the designer and could stretch generational into families or students of the designer who would complete the artist’s vision of the building and such is the case with this church which did not see completion until 1823. The result as seen here is an imposing building that dominates its surroundings with a bell tower that thrusts into the skyline at a height of 44m and I think no one ignored the call of the bells when rung.
I took this on Oct 7th, 2018 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f3.5-5.6 Lens at 72mm 1/30s f`11 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , and DXO

Keep in mind that back in the day, some 2000 years ago, much of this would have been covered in marble (later reused in other buildings) so the view would have been quite different back then - and not only because the buildings would have been whole.
Closest to the camera is the Forum of Caesar (or Forum Iulium - in Italian Foro di Cesare), and the pillars to the far left belong to the temple of Venus Genetrix (Templum Veneris Genetricis / Tempio di Venere Genitrice). The street then, separating these ruins from the rest, is Via dei Fori Imperiali. And on the other side of the street you have, from left to right, Trajan's market, with the Torre delle Milizie behind it, Casa dei Cavalieri di Rodi (House of the Knights of Rhodes) in their house from the late 13th century, which is now used by the Sovereign Military Order of Malta (it's their red flag you can see), and behind that you can see Angelicum Pontificia Università San Tommaso D'Aquino, and finally to the right Forum of Augustus with some of the remains of the Mars Ultor temple.
¡Cuán bella se eleva al cielo
la torre de la ciudad!
En ella ves dibujados
los emblemas de la urbe,
que cada uno representa
las cosas de la ciudad,
y también los dominantes
que bien se quieren mostrar.
Todo un conjunto de escudos
que hacen grande su historia
y dan brillo a la ciudad.

Regno Unito, Londra, Vauxhall, Autunno 2015
L’eco-scultore subacqueo Jason deCaires Taylor ha aperto la sua prima istallazione a Londra sulle rive del Tamigi. Dal titolo 'The Rising Tide', l'installazione era formata da quattro fieri cavalli da lavoro e relativi cavalieri sulla riva sud, che erano ogni giorno nascoste e rivelate nuovamente dalle maree.
I cavalli avevano pompe di petrolio invece dei musi e il messaggio era mettere in discussione rapporto tra il futuro del mondo e i combustibili fossili. Gli uomini d'affari corpulenti a cavallo rappresenterebbero la posizione di potere sulle risorse mentre i due bambini piccoli raffigurano le future generazioni che vivranno con le conseguenze del consumo eccessivo. La mostra si è conclusa alla fine di settembre 2015.
Underwater eco-sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor opened his first London show on the banks of the Thames. Entitled 'The Rising Tide', the installation featured four proud working horses and their riders on the South Bank, which was concealed and revealed by the tide each day.
The horse had petroleum pumps instead of snouts and the message was to question the world's future relationship with fossil fuels. The corpulent businessmen astride two horses are designed to represent the position of power over these resources, while the two small children depict future generations who will live with the consequences of overconsumption. The exhibition ended at the end of September 2015.

Un grande stormo di cormorani rientra dal mare nel pomeriggio.
