Gaetano Pesce doesn't care much for right angles. The eminent Italian architect and designer has created, over the course of his long career, a massive body of work mostly without them. The shapes that scatter the 83-year-old's workshop are abstract and futuristic. Pesce's work is alive and in motion, writhing with energy. His pieces often seem to be telling a joke, or else they ooze comically into space. Recently, the themes that Pesce has been perfecting for years have caught on in the culture. Bottega Veneta creative director Matthieu Blazy commissioned him to make a series of 400 Come Stai? chairs for its summer 2023 collection show in Milan. (Then Kate Moss posed on one for a campaign.) They are available now on the fashion brand's website with prices ranging from $6,500 to $9,800. Gallerist Jeffrey Deitch has been known to lounge on a couple of the Pescedesigned sofas in his LA home. One, in the shape of a salmon, a bear, and a toucan, is hardly recognizable as a sofa at all.

"It's Not About Being Perfect. It's About Being Revolutionary"- Beyoncé Knowles-Carter talks business, legacy, art, and family.
Midway through Cowboy Carter, her eighth and most recent studio album, released this past spring, a voice makes the project's mission statement plain over blaring alarms and a thunderous beat-declaring the concept of genre to be a sense of confinement for those artists whose creativity is too wide-ranging to fit in a neat box. All before Beyoncé herself saunters in comparing herself to Thanos, the Marvel villain known for seeking precious stones of mystical power to claim as his own and assemble into one unified superpower.
The Miraculous Resurrection of Notre-Dame - In 2019, a fire nearly destroyed the crown jewel of France-and the nation set a breakneck five-year deadline to bring it back from the ashes. This is the story of how an army of artisans turned back centuries to restore Notre-Dame by hand, and wound up reviving something even greater than the cathedral itself.

Can Anyone Catch LAMAR JACKSON?
THERE IS AN awestruck, almost mythical way that folks discuss Lamar Jackson. Teammates, coaches, and fans talk about the Baltimore Ravens' incandescent 27-year-old quarterback like he's the football version of Paul Bunyan, if Bunyan ran the 40-yard dash in 4.3 seconds.
Healthy Protein Can Help Shrink Your Gut - Being a trainer, bodybuilder, and nutrition expert means that companies frequently send me their products and ask for my stamp of approval.
Like my father always said, "What you put inside your body always shows up on the outside." One protein shake that I received, that will remain nameless, was touted as 'the next big shake' but really had a list of gut destroying ingredients. Everywhere I read I saw harmful artificial ingredients, added sugars, synthetic dyes, preservatives and cheap proteins; the kind of proteins that keep you fat no matter how hard you hit the gym, sap your energy and do nothing for your muscles.
