Silvana Flowers of My Life: Gian Paolo Barbieri
Italian photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri is renowned for his work in the field of fashion and for his sensitivity towards beauty. He had the chance to travel a lot, shooting unique places and extraordinary people, along with his greatest passion: flowers. Over the years he gathered an exceptional collection of photographs, only partially exhibited on some occasions. Very few know about the personal life of Gian Paolo, who decided to keep it to himself. A chapter in his private sphere regards his relationship with Evar, a young architect and model from Bergamo who was killed in a motorcycle accident 24 years ago. Flowers of My Life tells their love story through the pictures of flowers and the portraits of Evar captured by Barbieri's lens, together with poems written by Branislav Jankic.

Silvana Alexandra Albini: Jewels
Showcases Alexandra Albini's unique, hand-made jewellery pieces. Feminine shapes often embrace large baroque pearls or precious gems that are not cut according to conventional standards but are roughly shaped or left in their natural crystal habit. The gems are chosen for the beauty of their colours and for their inclusions, valued because they add a natural authenticity to the stone. After all, aren't inclusions nature's fingerprint, worthy of being celebrated rather than condemned as flaws? These are the principal ingredients of Alexandra Albini's jewellery collection, as it is revealed in the pages of this book through the empathic eye of celebrated photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri. Text in English and Italian.
