Victor von Bülow (alias LORIOT) und Gregor von Rezzori - bei allen Unterschieden in Herkunft und Lebenslauf erweisen sich diese zwei Großmeister des Humors als verwandte Geister: beide arbeiteten erfolgreich als Zeichner, Schauspieler und Autoren; ihre Werke besitzen feinsinnige Komik und geschliffene Eloquenz. Sprachliche Eleganz gilt geradezu als ihr Markenzeichen. Dies zeigt sich auch wieder in den Gesprächen, die Hellmuth Karasek in der Fernsehsendung SPIEGEL TV Thema in den 90er Jahren mit ihnen führte. Ein großartiges Dokument!

Unlike most artists, Van Gogh developed very slowly, beginning with work as an art dealer that exposed him to many great works. He undertook this work for several years, after which he spent time as a missionary for the Dutch Reformed Church. Thereafter, he drifted for several years before returning home to his parents’ house, where he took up painting, largely self-taught with books on anatomy and painting. His great works all date from the later years of his life.

Am 28. Februar 1986 wird der schwedische Premierminister Olof Palme in Stockholm auf offener Straße erschossen. Der künftige Autor der "Millennium-Trilogie", Stieg Larsson, zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch Illustrator bei der antifaschistischen Zeitung Expo, beginnt intensive Recherchen zu dem Attentat aufzunehmen, das bis heute unaufgeklärt ist. Seine Ermittlungen setzt er über Jahre hinweg fort - bis zu seinem frühen Tod im Jahr 2004. Erst 2014 stößt der Journalist und Dokumentarfilmer Jan Stocklassa auf das persönliche Archiv von Larsson.

È l'alba del XVI secolo. L'Italia è divisa in una miriade di regni litigiosi e incapaci di opporsi alle mire delle grandi potenze. Tra quelle corti soggette ai capricci della guerra si aggira un personaggio bizzarro e affascinante, che sembra uscito dalla penna di uno scrittore. È un pittore e scultore che come nessun altro riesce a catturare l'anima di ciò che raffigura. È un inventore in grado di concepire monumenti di prodigiosa bellezza, architetture così ardite da superare ogni immaginazione, macchine belliche che sembrano provenire da un futuro lontano.

From Life tells the story of the greatest portrait photographer of the Victorian age, Julia Margaret Cameron. Born in Calcutta in 1815, she married and settled down to the life of a typical Victorian colonial matron; but, beneath this conventional exterior, she was increasingly interested in photography. After moving to England, Cameron acquired her first camera in 1863, ultimately emerging as the leading portrait photographer of the Victorian art world.

Scienziato visionario, pittore eccelso, uomo eccentrico e ambizioso: Leonardo ebbe molte vite. A raccontarle, uno dei più riconosciuti esperti internazionali dell'arte del Rinascimento.

Delle 820 lettere scritte da Van Gogh nell'arco della sua breve esistenza ben 651 sono indirizzate al fratello Theo: il primo a comprenderne il talento e a incoraggiarne la vocazione, e il solo che non gli negò mai l'indispensabile sostegno morale e finanziario. Pochi artisti hanno rivelato così tanto di sé stessi nei propri scritti.

Chris Rush was born into a prosperous, fiercely Roman Catholic New Jersey family. But underneath the gleaming mid-century house, the flawless hostess mom, and the thriving businessman dad ran an unspoken tension that, amid the upheaval of the late 1960s, was destined to fracture their precarious facade. His older sister, Donna, introduces him to the charismatic Valentine, who places a tab of acid on 12-year-old Rush’s tongue, proclaiming: “This is sacrament. You are one of us now.”

En este audiolibro, escritas desde una memoria lúcida, aparecen anécdotas de artistas reconocidos, políticos como los Kennedy y los presidentes que ha tenido el Perú, su amistad con Mario Vargas Llosa o su matrimonio con la poeta Blanca Varela. En tono íntimo, habla también de sus ambiciones, fracasos, penas y amores. Son estas unas memorias llenas de vida, el autorretrato de un triunfador contra todo pronóstico, las palabras de un hombre libre.

"Ich bin durchsättigt vom Saargebiet und kenne es wie Wien. Sie werden sehen" - so kündigte Joseph Roth 1927 in einem Brief an den Feuilleton-Chef der "Frankfurter Zeitung" seine ersten Saar-Reportagen an. Ausgehend von einem Besuch im angrenzenden Lothringen - ein Zankapfel zwischen Deutschland und Frankreich - schuf Roth sieben pointierte Momentaufnahmen vom politischen, sozialen und kulturellen Alltag im Saarland. Joseph Roth war ein treffsicherer Beobachter, seine Texte - kongenial gelesen von Bernt Hahn - bestechen bis heute durch ihre Brillanz und Klarheit.

The ingenious artist we know as Michelangelo lived during the Renaissance in Northern Italy, and you could say that he was indeed a Renaissance man - he was a painter, sculptor, poet, and engineer all rolled up into one. Even though it has been some 450 years since his passing, his legacy remains one of the strongest on record. If the burgeoning art student of today wishes to learn from the best, he takes his notes directly from Michelangelo.

Unter diesem Titel berichtet Arno Schmidt über die Art, das Zustandekommen und die Auswirkungen dieser phantastischen Ausflüge. Regie: Imo Wilimzig.

Al nostro secolo è mancata la vocazione di costruire cattedrali. Ma c'è Raymond Isidore che costruì una cattedrale fatta di detriti. E la sorte volle che questo incongruo monumento, oggi considerato un luogo d'arte, sorgesse a Chartres. Dapprima fonditore, poi pulitore di rotaie e alla fine custode di discariche e cimiteri, Raymond Isidore, detto Picassiette, raccolse instancabilmente nella spazzatura frammenti di tazze, piatti e bicchieri, con i quali ricopriva ogni superficie e ogni suppellettile della sua casa.
