Salzburg:
from the newsletter:
Since my last letter, things have slightly changed, or I should say, moved.
In fact, I reached a gentle town, in the hearth of Europe, where history was made and time seems to be frozen.
Surrounded by snowy peaks and epic nature, the town is reflected in the never still waters of the Salzach, a river that crosses the narrow ancient streets of the old and new town, which is never silent.
I have recently moved to Salzburg, where I will be spending some time, going up and down the Alps, to reach home, a place that still needs to be found.

Does Art emotion us?
I have always followed Nadav Kander’s work, he’s for me an inspirational artist for many reasons. Looking at his website, I have bumped into something very special, THE LAST DA VINCI.
This powerful video is a banal proof of how art still impresses, astonishes and inspires us all.
from nadavkander.com:
It was decided to honour the significance of Salvator Mundi — the greatest artistic rediscovery of the last 100 years — by turning the tables and documenting its profound effect on those looking and pointing their camera phones.
Within the beautifully lit Christie’s exhibition space in Rockefeller Center, a camera was set up beneath the Salvator Mundi to record a video portrait of those who came to spend time with it. Using the wide range of responses to the masterpiece, a single piece of film has been created that shows the divine moment of connection between this powerful, mysterious, enigmatic portrayal of Christ and those who have felt compelled to observe it.
The film is cut to four minutes and 14 seconds to reflect the fact that in his painting, Leonardo presents Christ as he is characterised in the Gospel of John 4:14: ‘And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son as the Saviour of the World.’
