Epomeo and surroundings
BY CIRO CENATIEMPO
I took the photo of the Long-eared owl on the cover at the Pietra dell'Acqua, on the south-north direction, between this vital place for the human insular history and the highest point of Mount Epomeo, which stands at 789 meters on the level of the shoreline. I followed the “young gentleman bird” for a few minutes, I captured it in seven images in sequence, upwind and at a distance, then I approached and zac !, he even posed himself on his favorite rock, with - at shoulders - the silhouette of the Blue Island.
Nice and good
BY CIRO CENATIEMPO
To illustrate our work could not miss the contribution of an artist who I appreciate very much, and is among my favorites: Manuel Di Chiara. On the cover (here is another piece of him) there is his version of dolphin fish, phantasmagoric fish of which I speak in the following pages. The dolphin fish triumphs in the autumn sea, and is “nice and good”. Perfect icon. Just like the island we love and tell, in the wake of epochal stories, above all tasty this time; always current. In 1940 Edgar Kupfer-Koberwitz, an intellectual globetrotter born near Wroclaw, wrote a substantial diary entitled “Ischia the forgotten island”.
The crib is an island
BY CIRO CENATIEMPO
“The crib is an island” is the title of a project that I carried out in 2008 for Pasquale Di Massa, master of exemplary craftsmanship, and the association of Amici del Presepe. Now intuition reincarnates for summarize the corpus of the latest 2019 issue of Ischia News,
already screened for spring 2020 – “Venti Venti” - which will be a party ... numerological and much more.
Ischia, the show must go on
Following the earthquake that has upset Ischia on August 21, 2017, the island and the islanders have a lot of desire to restart, to have a second chance of rebirth.
October closes the summer season with many appointments of solidarity and sense of union, a closing season and one that opens with the prerogative of RESTART!
We start from Urban Sketchers: an association founded with the aim of spreading the educational value and documentation of the design from the fact that in ten years has involved thousands of people all over the world. For the third consecutive year, forty designers from all over the world find themselves in Ischia for the editing of a collective reportage on the island.
Let us not forget the traditions, such as the one on the island that is never missing.
In Cimmentorosso, in the town of Forio, you will find the La Pergola farm. A place for the recovery of traditions and the reverence of table pleasures, from food to good drinking. Here, you can find jams with rare and special tastes and traditional food like the Cacciatora rabbit.
April, harmony of colors
With the new release of IschiaNews 2018 opens a new tourist season, the first after an event that has gray colored our island. But it is precisely from the colors that starts Ischia, the beautiful and lively ones that transmit emotions and feelings.
The colors are what we see in a beautiful picture, like those of Antonio Macrì, who taught us to transfer the results of the vision in color, which were concentrated in a short memory shot, after introjecting an icon, a movement, a familiar or foreign gesture.
On the blue color of the sea we immerse ourselves in the extraordinary world of Aenaria, the mythical city of the sea that has given us hidden treasures. Aenaria from "aenum", metal, therefore. The discovery of an intense metallurgical activity finally explained the origin of the name of the rediscovered city.
