Early Bird Painters show

Monday, February 18th, 2008

I am a total early bird wanna be, I’ve tried joining some of my friends and colleagues who go out in the very early hours of the morning to paint and draw. Alas I’ve never made it out of my bed, yet. But I sneaked in an artshow that features my Early Bird Painters friends. [...]

Venice Chronicles – an update

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

As some of you might know, I’ve been itching to make a book collecting all the 120 plus pages of the Venice Chronicles for some time now. In the last few months I’ve needed to muster some patience with all that. I’ve worked with a literary agent since the fall and the book has done [...]

Did I mention that my name, if I had been a girl, would’ve been Valentina? True story. So my full name really is Enrico Guido Valentina Casarosa. Wow, that’s something. Yes Guido is my middle name, don’t laugh if you’re from around NYC, it’s not a good thing to be a Guido around there. But [...]

The Milan trip

Friday, February 8th, 2008

I was gone for only five days last week but it sure felt like longer, a very jam-packed quick visit. The reason I was in Milan as I had mentioned was work: the italian release of the Ratatouille DVD. I prepared a presentation for the press conference held at Terrazza Martini (great view of the [...]

Politics on an art blog?

Thursday, February 7th, 2008

Well, I am usually really adverse to talking politics, especially on this blog. Furthermore I can’t even vote (I am a legal alien, like Sting) but yesterday I remained surprised by this youtube prensentation by Stanford Professor Lawrence Lessig (whom oddly enough I mentioned last week here) breaking down Clinton and Obama. I found it [...]
