One of our favorites too.
Pluto e Proserpina (Pluto and Persephone)
By far, my favorite piece of almost all Italian art by my favorite Italian artist, Bernini. And to think, this was done with marble, 400 years ago, by a man of only 23 years.

Forget your Brooklyn indie shit.
my pick for video of the year
Алла Пугачёва — Приезжай (1977)
Alla Pugacheova — Come
Come if you’re still lonely
And if you’re blue at night
Come for a day, an hour, a minute
Come for a moment, hear my heart cry
Alla Pugacheva has been performing since 1965 and retired only recently, in 2009. She has been one of the biggest household names in Russia and the former Soviet Union for several generations. I’ve known about her and her music since I can remember. This is the first song of hers that I like.
"I woke up inside the headache. The headache is a room where I have to stay as I cannot afford to pay rent anywhere else. Every hair aches to the point of turning gray. There is an ache inside that Gordian knot, the brain, which wants to do so much in so many directions. The ache is also a half-moon hanging down in the light-blue sky; the color disappears from my face; my nose is pointing downward; the entire divining rod is turning down toward the subterranean current. I moved into a house built in the wrong place; there is a magnetic pole just under the bed, just under my pillow, and when the weather chops around above the bed I am charged. Time and again I try to imagine that a celestial bonesetter is pinching me through a miraculous grip on my cervical vertebrae, a grip that will put life right once and for all. But the house of headache is not ready to be written off just yet. First I have to live inside it for an hour, two hours, half a day. If at first I said it was a room, change that to a house. But the question now is this: Is it not an entire city? Traffic is unbearably slow. The breaking news is out. And somewhere a telephone is ringing."
