African art emerged from the world of ethnology at the beginning of the 20th century to find its place in the history of art. The book will attempt, for the first time, to highlight both the purely aesthetic aspects of African works of art, and their significance, explored in light of the religious and social structures that characterise the African continent; slabs from Benin, Bakotan reliquaries, Bundu masks, pieces in ivory, wood and bronze, to look at Africa from this two-fold point of view. A description of the principal African ethnic groups and where they are, with a timeline showing the main stages in African studies from myth to history. Published to accompany an exhibition at the Museo delle Culture, Milan. (26 March - 30 August 2015).

"New York is a city you must behold not only with your eyes but also with your heart" Stefano LucchiniThe idea for this book got its spark two years ago when the author bought a curious photo album. The film contained fleeting snapshots of a New York that never sleeps, from the southern tip of Manhattan north past Central Park.The images serve to create a perfect homage to the grand metropolis, demonstrating its vibrancy despite being shot in black and white, and revealing a melting pot of different people, realities and sentiments."This book is a beautiful assortment of previously unknown photographs. Though each picture evokes a different aspect of the city, the collection as a whole reflects New York s endless creative energies and aspirations" Gay Talese
