  • PALERMO, ITALY - 24 MAY 2022: "Branco", a series of sculptures by Velasco Vitali is seen here in the church of San Domenico as part of the Spazi Capaci (Capaci Spaces), a public art program designed to build trust in institutions and ensure mobsters never gain a foothold in the city again in Palermo, Italy, on May 24th 2022.<br />
<br />
<br />
Until recently, Palermo was infamous as the Mafia capital of the world. A turning point in the establishment of law and order was the murder of Giovanni Falcone, Italy’s a famous judge who pioneered new methods to combat the Mafia and paved the way to the organization’s demise. The Mafia had its revenge in 1992, detonating a powerful bomb under a road near Capaci in Palermo’s hinterland. The explosion killed Falcone, his wife and three escorts.<br />
<br />
To mark the 30th anniversary of the tragedy on Monday, Palermo unveiled seven art<br />
installations reminding people of the city’s dark Mafia years, and encouraging local residents to<br />
resist creeping mafia influence. Part of the Spazi Capaci (Capaci Spaces), a three-year public art<br />
series taking place mainly in the Sicilian capital, the works were inaugurated as dignitaries<br />
including Sergio Mattarella, the President of Italy, arrived in Palermo for a commemoration<br />
ceremony remembering Falcone. The project has been organized by the Fondazione Falcone, an anti-Mafia organization in Palermo, with funding provided by the Education Ministry and private donors. “We have always<br />
known that culture is one of the best weapons against the Mafia,” said Maria Falcone, the sister<br />
of the murdered judge and President of the Fondazione Falcone. “Repression alone is not<br />
enough to beat the Mafia,” she added. “You also need social and cultural work for that.”<br />
Capaci Spaces aims to inspire residents to take pride in their city by making Palermo more<br />
beautiful, Falcone said. Displaying art in public places could also show that the city belongs to<br />
everybody, not just the mafiosi, she said. “In short, we are

  • NAPLES, ITALY - 7 JULY 2020: A Mozzarella and cherry tomatoes are seen here at Lello Massa A' Muzzarella Mia Parla, a delicatessen in Naples, Italy, on July 7th 2020.<br />
<br />
In 2009, a customer entered Lello Massa’s deli in Naples and, after biting into a ball of Lello’s mozzarella, exclaimed, “This mozzarella speaks.” “I didn’t think for a moment. I took a large sheet of paper and a red marker and wrote: my mozzarella speaks,” says 46-year-old Lello. And from that day on, this served as the new name of his rosticceria.<br />
<br />
Lello Massaa describes his rosticceria, technically a shop selling premade dishes, as a real Neapolitan bistro. The son of Michele Massa, one of the most famous and oldest restaurateurs in the Sanità district, Lello decided in 2008 to move the family business to Via Foria, where it still stands today. “I started as a simple delicatessen and then gradually I added ready-made meals, first courses, pizzas of all kinds… in short, a Napoli-style bistro,” says Lello, who is always enthusiastic and smiling.<br />
<br />
But the strong point of the delicatessen from the beginning was certainly the mozzarella, “the white gold of Campania,” a product that he receives fresh every morning from a dairy in Caserta. “I won’t reveal the manufacturer’s name, it’s a secret, but I can assure you that the quality is unbeatable,” says Lello.

  • NAPLES, ITALY - APRIL 10th 2018: A waiter hold an order of pennette with Genovese sauce in the kitchen of the Trattoria Malinconico, a popular restaurant in the Vomero district in Naples, Italy, on April 10th 2018.<br />
<br />
Trattoria Malinconico was opened in 1953 by current owner Marianna Sorrentino’s parents-in-law. At first it was only a bulk wine cellar, but then he began making a few cooked dishes – small plates that were popular with locals, which eventually morphed into larger meals. Still today the trattoria is frequented the neighborhood’s older residents, many of whom have been loyal regulars for years, as well as younger locals and workers, who often stop by for a glass of wine. The menu varies from day to day, and is typically based on traditional Neapolitan recipes. Though some dishes, like meatballs, sausages, and friarielli (rapini, a type of broccoli typical to Naples), are always available.<br />
 <br />
<br />
Genovese sauce is a rich, onion-based pasta sauce from the region of Campania, Italy. Likely introduced to Naples from the northern Italian city of Genoa during the Renaissance, it has since become famous in Campania and forgotten elsewhere.<br />
Genovese sauce is prepared by sautéing either beef, veal or pork in a large number of onions, for at least two but as many as ten hours. Large, cylindrical pasta like rigatoni, ziti or candele are favored because they can hold the rich sauce.

  • FLORENCE, ITALY - 29 JUNE 2016: The new director of the Uffizi Gallery Eike Schmidt poses for a portait in the "Michelangelo and the Florentines" room at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, on June 29th 2016.<br />
<br />
Art historian Eike Schmidt, former curator and head of the Department of Sculpture, Applied Art and Textiles at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, became the first non-Italian director of the Uffizi in August 2015, replacing Antonio Natali who directed the gallery for 9 years. One of the main goals of the new director is to open the Vasari Corridor to the general public. Currently the corridor can only be visited with group reservations made by external tour and travel agencies throughout the year.<br />
<br />
The Vasari Corridor is is a 1-kilometer-long (more than half mile) elevated enclosed passageway which connects the Palazzo Vecchio with the Palazzo Pitti, passing through the Uffizi Gallery and crossing the Ponte Vecchio above the Arno River, in Florence. The passageway was designed and built in 1564 by Giorgio Vasari in only 6 months to allow Cosimo de’ Medici and other Florentine elite to walk safely through the city, from the seat of power in Palazzo Vecchio to their private residence, Palazzo Pitti. The passageway contains over 1000 paintings, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, including the largest and very important collection of self-portraits by some of the most famous masters of painting from the 16th to the 20th century, including Filippo Lippi, Rembrandt, Velazquez, Delacroix and Ensor.

  • AFFILE, ITALY - 23 AUGUST 2012: A wreath was left on the tomb of fascist Marshall Rodolfo Graziani for the opening ceremony of the mausoleum dedicated to him in Affile, a town with a population of 1,600 80km east of Rome, on August 23, 2012. A mausoleum and park, dedicated to the memory of Fascist Field Marshall Rodolfo Graziani, has recently been opened in the Italian town of Affile. At a cost of €127,000 to local taxpayers, the mayor Ercole Viri has expressed hope that the site will become as ‘famous and as popular as Predappio’ – the burial place of Mussolini which has become a shrine to neo-Fascists. Rodolfo Graziani was the youngest colonel in the Regio Esercito (Royal Italian Army), known as the "Butcher of Fezzan" and the "Butcher of Ethiopia" for the brutal military campaigns and gas attacks he led in Libya and Ethiopia under the dictatorship of Benito Mussolini under which he then became Minister of Defence from 1943 to 1945.

<br />
Feeling the heat from Greece and Spain, which had prioritized vaccination campaigns on their islands to lure tourists away from Italy,  Vincenzo De Luca - the president of the Campania region, which includes Capri -  diverged from the government’s vaccination strategy of prioritizing categories of more vulnerable Italians. Instead, he treated Capri and other holiday islands as special cases. He fast forwarded vaccinations on Capri by flooding the island with doses and inoculating first seniors, then the middle-aged, then 20-somethings and even some teenagers while the rest of the region was still struggling to inoculate all its 70- and 60-year-olds.

  • PALERMO, ITALY - 24 MAY 2022: "L'Albero dei tutti", a sculpture by Gregor Prugger is seen here in the church of Santa Maria dello Spasimo, as part of the Spazi Capaci (Capaci Spaces), a public art program designed to build trust in institutions and ensure mobsters never gain a foothold in the city again in Palermo, Italy, on May 24th 2022.<br />
<br />
<br />
Until recently, Palermo was infamous as the Mafia capital of the world. A turning point in the establishment of law and order was the murder of Giovanni Falcone, Italy’s a famous judge who pioneered new methods to combat the Mafia and paved the way to the organization’s demise. The Mafia had its revenge in 1992, detonating a powerful bomb under a road near Capaci in Palermo’s hinterland. The explosion killed Falcone, his wife and three escorts.<br />
<br />
To mark the 30th anniversary of the tragedy on Monday, Palermo unveiled seven art<br />
installations reminding people of the city’s dark Mafia years, and encouraging local residents to<br />
resist creeping mafia influence. Part of the Spazi Capaci (Capaci Spaces), a three-year public art<br />
series taking place mainly in the Sicilian capital, the works were inaugurated as dignitaries<br />
including Sergio Mattarella, the President of Italy, arrived in Palermo for a commemoration<br />
ceremony remembering Falcone. The project has been organized by the Fondazione Falcone, an anti-Mafia organization in Palermo, with funding provided by the Education Ministry and private donors. “We have always<br />
known that culture is one of the best weapons against the Mafia,” said Maria Falcone, the sister<br />
of the murdered judge and President of the Fondazione Falcone. “Repression alone is not<br />
enough to beat the Mafia,” she added. “You also need social and cultural work for that.”<br />
Capaci Spaces aims to inspire residents to take pride in their city by making Palermo more<br />
beautiful, Falcone said. Displaying art in public places could also show that the city belongs to<br />
everybody, not just the mafiosi, she said. “I

  • NAPLES, ITALY - 7 JULY 2020: Customers have lunch at Lello Massa A' Muzzarella Mia Parla, a delicatessen in Naples, Italy, on July 7th 2020.<br />
<br />
In 2009, a customer entered Lello Massa’s deli in Naples and, after biting into a ball of Lello’s mozzarella, exclaimed, “This mozzarella speaks.” “I didn’t think for a moment. I took a large sheet of paper and a red marker and wrote: my mozzarella speaks,” says 46-year-old Lello. And from that day on, this served as the new name of his rosticceria.<br />
<br />
Lello Massaa describes his rosticceria, technically a shop selling premade dishes, as a real Neapolitan bistro. The son of Michele Massa, one of the most famous and oldest restaurateurs in the Sanità district, Lello decided in 2008 to move the family business to Via Foria, where it still stands today. “I started as a simple delicatessen and then gradually I added ready-made meals, first courses, pizzas of all kinds… in short, a Napoli-style bistro,” says Lello, who is always enthusiastic and smiling.<br />
<br />
But the strong point of the delicatessen from the beginning was certainly the mozzarella, “the white gold of Campania,” a product that he receives fresh every morning from a dairy in Caserta. “I won’t reveal the manufacturer’s name, it’s a secret, but I can assure you that the quality is unbeatable,” says Lello.
