Joseph Beuys – Greetings from the Eurasian 13 Oct 2017 - 21 Jan 2018
Sottsass' work is regularly shown at the Mourmans Gallery [739 Zeedijk, 8300 Knokke, Belgium, 050/611991]. Mr. Mourmans had his house [in Lanaken ] designed by Sottsass, mixing the Mourmans' passion for birds and design. The Mourmans gallery in Knokke was designed by Gaetano Pesce and is worth a visit for its own sake. This 4,400 s.f. gallery was designed in 1992-1993, and it explores a new way of exhibiting smaller scale pieces, concealing them within the gallery walls behind resin doors. One of the gallery rooms with a puzzle wall designed by Pesce at the Mourmans Gallery in Knokke, Belgium.

RIP Danielle Darrieux (1917 – 2017), French actress, 8 Women (above).
RIP Umberto Lenzi (1931 – 2017), Italian film director of Kriminal (above).
A while ago, I bought Een fee zoals je ze niet alle dagen tegenkomt (above), the Dutch translation of Four Roses for Lucienne (1967), a collection of stories by Roland Topor.
Highlights of these stories include "Les Énigmes de l'histoire" (The Enigmas of History), a one-sentence story (what in the Anglosphere is known as flash fiction) about Mr de la Palice, a man who dies 15 minutes before his death and "L'Accident" (The Accident), a story of Jesus walking on water, slipping on a banana peel and breaking his neck on the crest of a wave.

I finally hold a copy of The Survival of the Pagan Gods (1940) in my hands and on page 117 is a depiction of The Punishment of Juno[1] (above) by Antonio da Correggio.

"Shinzo No Tobira" by Mariah from the album Utakata no Hibi (1983), see Yasuaki Shimizu.
Mariah’s final recording Utakata no Hibi (1983) weaved traditional Japanese festival rhythms with rock tempos and sounds.
Radical Eroticism: Women, Art, and Sex in the 1960s (2018) by Rachel Middleman
While researching The Survival of the Pagan Gods of my previous post[6], I stumbled upon the above, The Erotic Revolution (1965) by Lawrence Lipton. It's one of these sexual revolution utopian books on erotic art of the countercultural 1960s of which Eros Denied (1964) by Wayland Young -- which I reviewed here[7] -- is probably the best.

The Darkening Age (2017) is a book by Catherine Nixey. It argues that Christianity wilfully destroyed the intellectual legacy of classical antiquity, by - among other things - closing Plato's Academy and erasing the Archimedes Palimpsest. Her argument makes sense. Only later did Christian monks try to recover the intellectual fruit of the classical world as was shown in the book Aristote au mont Saint-Michel.
What does this have to do with the picture above?
Well it is a depiction of Pluto and Proserpina, featured in Les Échecs amoureux moralisés by Evrard de Conty and depicted on the cover of an English edition of Jean Seznec's The Survival of the Pagan Gods[9], a work that argues that while the pagan Gods had disappeared from everyday life, they had resurfaced in art.
