Sconfini appare un titolo più che adeguato per la grande antologica che verrà ospitata a Udine, nella splendida cornice di Villa Manin, dal 29 ottobre 2016 al 19 marzo 2017. La mostra, ideata e organizzata dal Fonds Héléne & Édouard Leclerc pour la Culture e tenutasi per la prima volta con il titolo Infinia Landerneau, in Francia, dal 6 dicembre 2015 al 6 marzo 2016, offre una selezione di quasi trecento opere che consente di percorrere i diversi capitoli di un grande viaggio introspettivo segnato dal trionfo dell'immaginario, dell'arte della composizione e del potere espressivo del colore. 'La mia produzione è, anche per me, un viaggio alla ricerca dell'identità. Probabilmente ho paura di perdermi a mia volta' dichiara Mattotti stesso nella conversazione che introduce il catalogo. Il volume è il catalogo della mostra frutto di una stretta collaborazione tra l'artista e il curatore David Rosenberg (coadiuvato da Lucas Hureau, curatore associato). Metamorfosi, Angeli, Rovine, Attrazione, Amore sono solo alcuni dei temi che scandiscono il percorso espositivo e articolano il libro in una serie di capitoli che, pagina dopo pagina, consentiranno ai lettori/osservatori di vivere o rivivere l'esperienza della mostra offrendo loro uno sguardo a 360 gradi sulla visione e sull'opera sconfinata di Lorenzo Mattotti.

A monograph on an artist of international renown, the French painter André Brasilier. Born in Saumur, Touraine, in 1929, André Brasilier was admitted to the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in 1949. His life as an artist is one of perpetual wandering but always in contact with nature, a constant presence around each of his combined homes and studios. His compositions are daring, varied in construction, highly modern, and effective in surprising, holding, and enchanting the art lover’s eye.Through 200 paintings and an interview with David Rosenberg, this catalog investigates three predominant themes within the universe of this artist, who regards Gauguin as his spiritual father, namely music, rural life, and horses. Ocher, white, and black characterize works where musicians and their instruments are barely sketched out. The recurrent female figure that stands out in many paintings against landscapes and expanses of blue, green, black, and russet hues is Brasilier’s wife, Chantal, his muse and constant source of inspiration.

Freedom from suffering is not only possible, but the means for achieving it are immediately within our grasp—literally as close to us as our own breath. This is the 2,500-year-old good news contained in theAnapanasati Sutra, the Buddha's teaching on cultivating both tranquility and deep insight through full awareness of breathing. In this audiobook, Larry Rosenberg brings this timeless meditation method to life. Using the insights gained from his many years of practice and teaching, he makes insight meditation practice accessible to modern practitioners.

When New York Times foreign correspondent J. B. Collins hears rumors that an al-Qaeda splinter cell has captured a cache of chemical weapons inside Syria, he knows this is a story he must pursue at all costs. Does the commander of the jihadist faction really have the weapons? If so, who is the intended target? The U.S.? Israel? Or could it be Jordan?

With tensions already high, the impending visit of the American president to the region could prove to be the spark that sets off an explosion of horrendous proportions. Knowing that terrorist forces have already toppled two regimes in the region, can Collins uncover the truth before it's too late? Or will the terrorists succeed in setting their sights on the third and final target?
