Bruno Cordati
1890 - 1979

“Everybody should take active part in the battle of art, because the artist’s life is connected to the life of all his contemporaries, and because art leaves eternal traces of the life of peoples.”        

Bruno Cordati

  • Info : Please, resolve the addition below before post any new comment...
  • Guest_3755 : Wonderful image, that defecating dog sign. Whoever designed it should earn a place at the Uffizi
  • Guest_4929 : wonderful
  • doggybag : Guest_4929; sorry but Daily Images has been closed for 10 days as O'Connor is on strike and demanding more money - we, of course will not bow down to that kind of threat. He is back up on line again this week. Be sure to check through Total Images 2008 «link» to catch up on those missing images
  • Guest_4929 : We miss your daily images. In case you missed it the first time.
  • Viviano : ..drums -- and usually three our four back-up singers.
  • Viviano : Carde's right to bemoan the use of sound tracks -- but so did Drew when he sang at his first Barga gig. He asked the audience to plead with local musicians to jam with him on his second night at the Sport. I also think our grande batterista is confusing blues with soul in his comment about inexpensive guitars. Bluesmen will perform with just a chitarra da 2 soldi, but soul was always highly orchestrated music with lots ofhorns and string instruments in the background -- as well as a full set of drums -- and usually three our four back-up singers.
  • Guest_4929 : We miss the Daily Images.
  • jjcarde : forse mr drew è venuto in italia perchè è l'unica nazione europea dove è permesso esibirsi in pubblico cantando su delle basi? un vero soulman piuttosto imbraccia una chitarra da 2 soldi...
  • Viviano : Bro' Drew is my main man -- seal of approval from a Motown refugee
  • jjcarde : potrebbe essere un modo per risolvere il problema del sorappopolamento del pianeta...
  • Guest_4929 : I'll drink to that.
  • Viviano : Bill Sheets and I reached a stunning conclusion this evening: At approximately $800 billion, the U.S. financial bail-out is equal to the cost of 250 glasses of wine at Aristdemo's Caffe for every man, woman and child on Earth. Bill agreed with me that Marino will need to hire at least one more barista to handle the crowd. We arrived at these figures over a glass of wine, needless to say. But I checked them on my calculator when I got home, and they add up.
  • doggybag : Guest_2226 - sorry no images of this event
  • Guest_2226 : Salve, sono a chiedervi se avete le foto della Storica, pedalata cicloturistica per bici d'epoca dispotata il 14 settembre a Barga,sono un atleta del team Jolly Bike che ha fatto la manifestazione. Cordiali saluti
  • Guest_4356 : I want to rent a 2 bed appartment from 6.3.09 - 6.5.09. Must have wi-fi. Please email «email» with details, thanks.
  • Guest_225 : Wonderful concert last night. Thanks Hamish et al and thanks Keane for continuing to cover Barga News. We had withdrawel symtoms while you were away. Adelina
  • izzy : Thanks for all of your hard work DB in getting Barga News up and running again, welcome back I have missed you.
  • everyone : you will be sorely missed.
  • W. Shakespeare : Lear? Not at all! Those words are lifted from Macbeth's soliloquy:"....L ife's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
  • Quentin Compson : Yes, Ma'am. It would be King Lear I believe, an allusion to the fool (and to Lear himself). But there is a more recent connection between Yokapatawpha and the Coldfields with a Biblical reference -- Absalom -- rather than the Shakespearean one to which you allude.
  • poetry : Miss Coldfield, considered poetess laureate of Yoknapatawpha County, may simply be quoting Shakespeare, I do believe.
  • Quentin Compson : Rosa: Stay in your own novel, please. You have no business in The Sound and the Fury, although I appear in both.
  • Quentin Compson : Doggy, May I refer you to three sources on the Action-Theory dialectic? Albert Camus: "To do is to be." Jean-Paul Sartre: "To be is to do." Francis Albert Sinatra; "Do be do be doo." That should answer your question.
  • Rosa Coldfield : ... it is a tale Told by and idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
  • doggybag : Quentin - your constant focus on ideas over deeds makes you a highly unreliable commentator- quite often it is difficult to tell which of the actions you are suggesting are mere figments of your imagination and which you really do think should be acted upon.
  • Quentin Compson : Hey, you two ought to get together sometime.
  • Rosa Coldfield : Why of course : )
  • Thomas Sutpen : Miss Rosa knows very well who will merely endure, and who will ultimately prevail
  • Rosa Coldfield : It is not entirely clear, however, who has been sorest lately or with whom ; )
  • Lord Beaconsfield : Welcom back, Barganews, you were sorely missed
  • doggybag : fingers and legs crossed
  • Santi : Thank you for answering my question.
  • Cartier-Bresson : What a wonderful image of the equally wonderful Maestra Paola -- that could be no one else's elegantly gloved hand...
  • Guest_4784 : the girl behind the bar is in the ALTANA rest. just inside the old city
  • message for Santi : Altana
