symbol of the city and evocative reminder of past and present.
The winged horses will be on display in a new exhibition that brings them back to the origins, in the room that welcomed them after the discovery and is now again ready to celebrate its beauty.

Indulge the genius of Moses, an intense Italian tour and four amazing gifts.
35 years ago I had the enormous pleasure to discover Moses Pendleton’s MOMIX at its very first appearance in Milan, Italy.
If I remember well, the company counted then only four (maybe six) components including a very young Daniel Ezlarow.
It was one of the best evening I ever spent in a theatre, a breathless performance and a priceless new form of entertaining . I was amazed.
The morning after, I run to the office of Per Lui, a gorgeously trendy fashion magazine published by Italian Conde’Nast.
I begged, literally, the young editor in Chief (at the time, a young Franca Sozzani, who is today the powerful Editor in Chief of Italian Vogue) “Franca, I saw a new group, we must publish a story, the show is extraordinary…” I was so pushy that I got a photographer and we went to shoot MOMIX for their first ever feature in an Italian magazine. I so wish I still had that issue…
Well, Per Lui closed few years later, but MOMIX didn’t.
Au contraire, they became famous all over the world.
I spend long time in New York and I don’t miss the chance to see them
at the Joyce Theatre in Chelsea.
Each time the miracle happens. Illusion, antigravity, magic, love, art, poetry, lights and visuals are melting together in moments that you have lived only on your dreams.
35 years later MOMIX are back at the Teatro Nazionale in Milan with a collage-performance appropriately titled
W MOMIX FOREVER.
“I wanted to celebrate the anniversary with something new, said Moses in the press conference, so I created “DADDY LONG LEG”, LIGHT REIGNS”, “AEREA”, “PAPER TRAILS” 
four new pieces that I mixed with moments from OPUS CATUS, BOTHANICA, reMIX SUN FLOWER MOON, all in one performance to represent novelty and continue the MOMIX vision, celebrating the past and testing the future”

TENERI RIBELLI
Pare che i bikers, spesso identificati come bad boys, si siano tranquillizzati, combinino meno guai e spendano di piu’. Statistiche dicono che, in un raduno importante, le tasse sulle vendite superino i 16 milioni di dollari e che si accumulino 700 tonnellate di spazzatura. In calo le multe, gli arresti, le violazioni del traffico e…i matrimoni. Eppure i siti addetti assicurano che i bikers“piu’ duri” siano in realta’ dei romanticoni in cerca dell’anima gemella, non a caso bikerkiss.com promuove incontri e baci tra bikers, naturalmente a cavallo di un’ infuocata Harley.
DISCOVER POLAND AND ITS MAGNIFICENT CITIES! Milan, EXPO 2015 
It will be a great occasion to get closer to Poland through a series of events held within the exhibition hall, the area in front and inside the city area. In the Poland Pavilion, you will find interactive installations and video themes, broken down by regions, creating an interesting virtual journey of the country: the Malopolska region, with 14 UNESCO sites, the magnificent city of Krakow, 
the Podlasie region, an area of wilderness, great traditions, multiculturalism and numerous paths for cycling; the Lower Silesia region from the rich and varied landscape with ancient cities, prestigious spas and the city of Wrocław, which in 2016 will be the European Capital of Culture;In addition to that you will discover cities of the Baltic Sea, amber; the capital Warsaw, UNESCO World Heritage town, exuberant, lively and full of life, with a cultural offer so rich that it boasts 28 theaters, 35 museums and 60 art galleries;
Finally Lublin, hosting the early famous Carnival of Acrobats. During the week it will be also presented the Greenvelo Project, the longest cycle path in Poland that crosses five regions of the territory east of the country. One of the attractions of the Pavilion is its magical garden. The winning design relates to one of Poland’s top agricultural exports – apples. Piotr Musiałowski, leading the architectural team, during the conceptualization of the Pavilion, sought to create a symbolic maze, with a magical garden as its focal point – a Polish orchard, full of apple trees. The hidden garden becomes a resting place on the other side of the mirror. An apple orchard reflected in infinite space is clearly associated with the Polish agriculture
Ohhhh I forgot about polish food ! Poland offers a culinary paradise that deserves to be discover and tastefully experimented!

“Into the Woods” is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella (Anna Kendrick), Little Red Riding Hood (Lilla Crawford), the Wolfe ( Johnny Deep)Jack and the Beanstalk (Daniel Huttlestone), and Rapunzel (MacKenzie Mauzy) – all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife (James Corden & Emily Blunt), their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch (Meryl Streep) who has put a curse on them. Rob Marshall, the talented filmmaker behind the Academy Award®-winning musical “Chicago” and Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” helms the film, which is based on the Tony®-winning original musical by James Lapine, who also penned the screenplay, and legendary composer Stephen Sondheim, who provides the music and lyrics. Produced by Marshall, John DeLuca, “Wicked” producer Marc Platt and Callum McDougall, “Into the Woods” hits theaters December 25, 2014.”
