Au Courant Art News in Italy
This news came to me by surprise. I was looking for a post and found it in The Local,
an online pop news-paper that gives the latest Italian stories. Uncanny that they so many appear to be art oriented.
You can see news about a Rome Street Artist Painting in New York to The Island Carpenter with the Pope’s Blessing to a Spaniard Strips in Front of a Botticelli Masterpiece all among other sensational, Star-like posts about How to Park Like an Italian or Why Italy Might Not Exist in 5 Years to even The Mafia Has Infiltrated Every Sector in Germany.
What struck me was even though most of these captions grabbed my attention, as if I were reading them while waiting in the grocery line and even though I knew they were teasers, I was pleasantly pleased to see so many art related posts among them.
I may even put The Local in my sidebar. Heck there are also other versions from other countries to check out. It’s nice to see what’s going on in Italy, my favorite country, and written in English.
This online journal seems to have a little bit for everybody.
