You may have already heard about the Cricket Festival and perhaps imagined it was the Italian version of that traditional game so popular in Britain.It is instead a rather unusual festival that evolves or rather evolved around real live crickets or oversized grass-hoppers! Animal lovers can now take heart, for the live insects have since been replaced by imitations in terracotta though naturally sitting in the customary colourful cages.

The Adige is a river with its source in the Alpine region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol near the Italian border with Austria and Switzerland. At 410 km in length, 220 located in the province of Bolzano, it is the second longest river in Italy, after the Po River with 652 km.The river flows out of the artificial Alpine Lake Resia, located at the Resia Pass (1504 m) close to the borders with Austria and Switzerland above the Inn valley. The lake is known for the church tower that marks the site of the former village of Curon Antica (Alt Graun) that was abandoned and flooded in 1953 when the dam was finished. Near Glurns, the Rom River from the Swiss Val Müstair joins.

Established in 1934, Parco del Circeo was born in order to protect not only a single species but also a rich group of typical biomes (associations of coexistent plants and animals determined and influenced by environmental factors) with a consequent abundance of species which today has been defined as biodiversity.

Between the first Cathedrals of Verona which date from the 4thCentury and Titian’s Assunta in the Duomo (1530) is a millennium in which Art and FaitAffresco trecentesco -San Fermo-h have met together.The Historical Churches of Verona offer a panorama of artistic continuity and purity of the principal works which is rarely found in Italy. You only have to think of the church of San Zeno, a Romanesque prototype, famous world wide for its ecceptional bronze entrance doors and the splendid Mantegna Triptych. But the other churches ore no less important: San Lorenzo, far example, with its highly original external towers giving access to the women’s galleries, or the Gothic feeling of San Fermo with its unusual lower church with four naves.

Cabinet is an award-winning quarterly magazine of art and culture that confounds expectations of what is typically meant by the words "art," "culture," and sometimes even "magazine." Like the 17th-century cabinet of curiosities to which its name alludes, Cabinet is as interested in the margins of culture as its center. Presenting wide-ranging, multi-disciplinary content in each issue through the varied formats of regular columns, essays, interviews, and special artist projects, Cabinet's hybrid sensibility merges the popular appeal of an arts periodical, the visually engaging style of a design magazine, and the in-depth exploration of a scholarly journal.

Contemporary is the world’s most widely distributed arts magazine, covering Visual Arts, News, Books, Trivia, Architecture, Design, Fashion, Film, Music, New Media, Photography, dance & Sport.
