I write about life at Villa Galtarossa, a bastion of contemporary art with artists Anna Galtarossa and Danielle Gonz��les in residence. I go on to explore how Palladio���s Villa Pisani Bonetti in Bagnolo contains within its walls a highly minimalist apartment. My visit to Centrale Montemartini, a museum housed in Rome���s first public electricity plant and dedicated to ancient Roman sculpture, resulted in both text and photographs that were a delight to author. Locanda San Vigilio, arguably Italy���s oldest restaurant and hotel, sequestered on a small peninsula in Lake Garda, reveals its many charms: culinary, atmospheric and sporting. We���re pleased that Leonard Barkan, also a renowned Epicurean, shares with us his favorite restaurants in Venice. In recognition of the aesthetic contribution of Italian Americans, Russell Bush reviews fashion designer Chado Ralph Rucci���s book. Alexander R��stel and I write about Helen Costantino Fioratti���s gallery, Antiquaire, and her Italianate apartment, both located on New York City���s famous Upper East Side. There���s more: Alexander Creswell watercolors document Malcom Forbes��� former residences, racing yachts and architecture. Gary Cooper: Enduring Style, a book by G. Bruce Boyer and Maria Cooper Janis exploring the style icon, is reviewed. Seth Pariser writes about California���s ZD vineyards and AnthonyHaden-Guest provides readers with an amusing cartoon. In the Finis section, Delia Greaves-Davis��� poem intrigues and concludes our La Serinissima edition. Remember: vite di arte e bellezza. A life of art is beauty. Christopher HYLAND Hyland
