An astronaut aboard the International Space Station took this photograph while orbiting over Puglia, the southeastern region of Italy that includes the “heel of the boot.” Settlements appear as lighter-toned
irregularly shaped zones that contrast with the numerous
dark-green plots associated with agricultural land
The township of Bitonto lies in the center of the image. Toward the north, intensive urban development along the coast of the Adriatic Sea serves the tourist industry centered on Giovinazzo, Santo Spirito, and Palese. Bari
which is Puglia’s capital and a major port
Road and railroad networks connect the region’s settlements
One of the most prominent transportation features in this image is the straight corridor connecting Bitonto to Palese and Bari
The corridor appears as a light-toned linear feature in the image that includes highway SP91 and the immediately adjacent railroad
A ring-shaped road circles the northern half of Bitonto
The southern half of this ring road runs through agricultural areas and is less visible in the image
This detailed photo—taken with a long (1,200 millimeter) focal length lens—shows a major highway interchange connecting SP231 to the ring road on the west side of Bitonto
just east of the SP91 transportation corridor
The Autostrada Adriatica is a regional highway that passes near Bitonto’s ring road
Local agriculture primarily comprises permanent crops
A waterway winds along the southern margin of Bitonto and is visible as a dark meandering line
The associated floodplain runs northeastward to the coast and into the Adriatic Sea
The waterway and its banks are part of the Lama Balice Regional Natural Park

or 'cookies,' with peanuts hidden inside provided valuable information about how mammals make seed dispersal decisions based on certain seed traits
Much like the squirrels and chipmunks in deciduous climates
there is a cat-sized creature in tropical regions that practices scatter hoarding – burying the seeds they find if they don’t eat them right away
A team of University of Connecticut researchers recently dug into the seed decision-making process of a rodent in Costa Rica
in order to learn more about their seed dispersal activities
these animals contribute substantially to seed survival and new tree growth
“Agoutis find seeds and either eat or bury them
who led the research with Carlos García‐Robledo
both assistant professors of ecology and evolutionary biology
It turns out that these cute “guinea pigs on stilts” are making a number of complex decisions when deciding to eat or scatter-hoard seeds
Researchers pursued the investigation with a half-baked idea: Make polymer clay artificial seeds
or “cookies,” of various sizes
Then distribute the “cookies” and track their dispersal by locating the strings after the agoutis have carried them off
Some of the cookies also had a coating of bitter-tasting tannins
so the researchers could learn if the agoutis have taste preferences
The researchers found that agoutis hid the cookies preferentially
Since larger seeds require more energy to carry further for hoarding
the number of seeds dispersed furthest was fewer than that of small seeds eaten closer to the source
They also found that cookies coated in bitter-tasting tannins didn’t deter the hungry rodents
“We weren’t sure if the agoutis would be interested in these artificial seeds,” says Kuprewicz
and we were able to track what they did with them in exceptional detail.”
The findings, published in the journal Ecosphere, made waves in social media because of the clever use of creations dubbed “science cookies.”
Kuprewicz says the experiment provided valuable information about how mammals make seed dispersal decisions based on certain seed traits
“These choices can scale up dramatically to affect the species compositions of tropical forests and the animal and plant communities that live there,” she says
The study was done in southern Costa Rica between August 2014 and 2015, on the grounds of the Wilson Botanical Garden. Funding for this work was provided by the Organization for Tropical Studies
I’m going to hide this one so no one finds it!” (Erin Kuprewicz/UConn Video)
Along Bitonto’s ancient Via delli Mercanti
which connected the town’s main gate
in what could be called the Renaissance heart of the town
a noble building that owes its name to Giovanni Alfonso Sylos
a Spaniard from Burgos who restored a medieval-era building in the second half of the 16th century
adding another floor on the spectacular loggia overlooking the most important square in the ancient town
which offers anyone who admires the palace an accomplished example of Bitonto’s Renaissance civil architecture
in 1902 the Ministry of Education had it included in theList of Italy’s Monumental Buildings
an architectural treasure of the city that has become further significant for Bitonto’s history since 2009
when the palace was chosen to house the National Gallery of Apulia
the region’s first national gallery dedicated to modern and contemporary art
the palace presents itself in its Renaissance appearance
with a loggia on columns and pillars and a small inner courtyard
an outlet to the outside of many rooms on the ground floor; a two-flight staircase also leads to the piano nobile
where the rooms are united and often communicating thanks to a terrace-cum-lobby placed above the loggia
features rusticated ashlars and pilasters and two decorative medallions depicting imperial portraits in profile
The history of the National Gallery of Apulia
also known as the “Girolamo and Rosaria Devanna” Gallery
following an act of great generosity on the part of the owners of a rich and extensive collection of paintings
The two siblings owned an exceptional collection of works of art that included hundreds of paintings and drawings (229 paintings and 108 drawings were donated to the state)
capable of covering four centuries of history
A strong passion accompanied by so much generosity and a great gesture of sharing
the Rosaria and Girolamo decided to donate their complete collection to the State
with the intention of making it public and therefore visible to all
obviously wishing that the works would not be dispersed but
that they would be allowed to be admired in their city and territory
at the conclusion of all the necessary steps
from cataloging and documentation to the choice of the museum location
from restoration to the realization of everything related to the musealization of the works
including the didactic apparatus and a short guide to the museum
the Gallery opened its doors to the public five years later
Girolamo and Rosaria Devanna (the latter passed away in February 2019
by profession respectively a professor of American literature at the University of Urbino and a middle school literature teacher
both lacked academic training in art history but deeply passionate about the subject and fine connoisseurs in constant contact with art historians
driven by a great love of art and the desire to establish themselves precisely through the collection
with its pieces collected following two substantial logics: the first
the desire to create a collection that would tell the story of art from the 16th century onward
The works were gathered mainly through purchases and exchanges with other collectors
published in 2005 shortly after the donation
Claudio Strinati traced the underlying motivations that led to the establishment of the impressive collection: “the Devanna collection was formed over long years of passionate and highly personal research,” the art historian wrote
“developed according to criteria of a taste and attention to Antiquity that have been rewarded by valuable discoveries and many significant results.” Strinati then went on to talk about the personality of Girolamo Devanna
of the two brothers he was the first to have begun collecting works of art: “Devanna falls into that category of collectors for whom the first and basic point lies in the challenge
with other experts in the inexhaustible search for the work of art to be acquired
certainly does not disdain the consultation and advice of art historians and critics and other collectors
his scrupulousness in documenting and comparing different ideas has always been admirable
but at the same time he also conceives of the collection as an affirmation of his own talent and ability to discover and identify.”
the doors of the Devanna house were always open to scholars
and experts who always appreciated the vastness and variety of the collection
although it did not follow a precise logical thread: the two brothers used to follow market proposals
rather than go in search of particular pieces (an eventuality that nonetheless sometimes occurred): the collection
was not built with the purpose of proving a specific thesis
“such as the reconstruction of an environment
a school or individual personalities.” There was no shortage of preferences
underlying the interests of the two collectors was
a curiosity for the “spectacular representations of counter-reformed pietism that referred to the altarpieces and the scenographic decorations of domes and false ceilings of Bitonto’s churches,” so much so that local art of the seventeenth century plays an important role in the Devanna collection
a matter of collecting motivated by academic interest: the choices of the Devanna brothers were dictated
“certainly by the contingencies of the market and the financial situation of the moment
but always inspired by a taste for beauty and an innate curiosity for different artistic forms and cultures.” Choices that led to “fortuitous purchases,” and also to “intuitions and discoveries pursued along bumpy paths
the outcome of patient ’lurking’ or of often long and arduous bargaining
or finally of exchanges as necessary as they were painful
but which led the main collector to procure now works by great masters
for which the original intuition was later comforted by the recognition of artistic historiography
now finally paintings that are still the subject of contradictory attributional hypotheses
but which nevertheless are of certain interest due to their very high quality
not only to insiders.” And if Girolamo has always been
the public face of the collection and the first “signer” of the choices
Rosaria (who constantly participated in her brother’s decisions) is mainly credited with a role related to their preservation: she is said to have been the one who pushed her brother to donate the first portion of the collection to the state
and she was always in charge of the care of the works that had instead remained in his residence in Bitonto
the collection they brought together through a common cultural interest and a shared passion for history and artistic traditions was to represent a comprehensive collection
capable of crossing their region and beyond
by great Italian and European artists (French
and as far as contemporary artists from overseas are concerned
exemplify a general discovery of the unseen and of the various forms of figurative art
A desire already witnessed by siblings Girolamo and Rosaria and continued in the musealization phase of the Gallery is to arouse in visitors a certain curiosity for aspects related to the works on display
which is followed by a desire to learn more and to know and even to return to the museum premises several times
walking through the various rooms of the museum
one can perceive this attention in presenting the body of works as the result of a careful private collection and in enticing the public not to exhaust with a simple visit the knowledge of the Gallery
but to continue the discovery by following the most diverse aspects of approndissement
Particularly relevant is the presence of numerous sketches
replicas or ancient copies typical of a collection that mostly comes from the antiquarian market; and as far as drawings are concerned
one notices the variety of techniques used
and of the artists who made them between the 16th and 20th centuries
in spite of the studies carried out and published and the files on the works that highlight the rich complexity of this heritage
iconographies and chronologies still remain
that is still open to new reflections on unresolved questions and new contributions from scholars and critics
accompanied by many of the greatest masters: the exhibition itinerary is divided into five sections distributed on the two levels of the ancient palace; on the upper floor there are rooms dedicated to the 16th
while on the lower floor there is only the section dedicated to the 20th century
The extensive collection now boasts more than 350 paintings that visitors can admire and discover by following a clear chronological thread
with a 16th-century work: welcoming visitors is a 14th-century Head of a Saint
reportedly attributed orally by Federico Zeri to Giovanni da Rimini
one of the leading Giottesque painters of northern Italy
and has not yet been thoroughly studied: for the time being
it is preferred to refer it to a more generic Adriatic area
The small portion of the table is but one of Devanna’s many discoveries
is a Nativity referred to Pietro Negroni known as lo Zingarello (Cosenza
an enigmatic artist close to Polidoro da Caravaggio
where both painters were in the fourth decade of the 16th century
but who also shows some knowledge of other painters from the northern area (such as Giulio Romano and Pellegrino Tibaldi)
The peculiarity of this painting lies in the fact that the usual iconography is reversed: usually
it is the Virgin who uncovers the Child Jesus
The work dates to about 1560 (the dating was suggested by scholar Sylvie Béguin
who related the panel to the altarpiece depicting the Madonna and Child with Saints Andrew and James
signed and dated 1555 by Negroni: it was probably executed for the Church of the Cross of Lucca in Naples and is now at the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Orléans)
a time when in the South (and elsewhere) the cult of St
Joseph experienced a certain popularity: it is therefore conceivable that the commissioner of the work
a devotee of Christ’s putative father
wanted for that reason to confer this unusual role on St
Still to remain in the sphere of 16th-century art
one of the most discussed paintings in the collection is the Portrait of a Monk (or Portrait of a Friar with White Habit)
an unusual portrait of a Dominican friar that in 1999 was first referred by the scholar Maurizio Marini to El Greco (DomÃnikos Theotokópoulos; Candia
1614): an attribution also supported by another leading art historian (as well as among the greatest El Greco specialists)
and around which the debate has recently reopened
One of the symbolic works of the National Gallery of Apulia is a painting by Giovanni Lanfranco (Parma
which emerged on the Roman antiquarian market in 1970
is not known: we can only speculate that it is a work whose commission matured in Franciscan circles
among which the unusual apocryphal iconography of the moment when Christ takes leave of his mother before leaving for Jerusalem on the eve of Passion Week was widespread
where the main group (the one with Christ kneeling
almost literally traces the work of homologous subject that Correggio (Antonio Allegri; Correggio
painted around 1517 and which is now in the National Gallery in London
arranged along the two diagonals of the painting in an almost symmetrical manner: modes (the tones
found in other paintings made at the turn of the 1710s and 1920s
have led scholars to date the work to around 1620
Another much-debated work is a splendid Christ Mocked dating from the mid-17th century: variously attributed to the Genoese Luciano Borzone (Genoa
it has more recently been traced to the hand of the Sienese Bernardino Mei (Siena
Then there is also room for a great local artist
1884): in the Devanna collection is one of his Views of Trafalgar Square executed when the artist
stayed for some time in London painting several views of the English capital
is supposed to be part of a series of London views that the “Italian Impressionist” painted that year for the English banker Kaye Knowles and that are now divided among various collections: the Bitonto one stands out for its unusual vertical cut
as if the artist painted traveling through the city in a carriage and looking out the window
the Devanna’s interest in twentieth-century art is mainly exemplified by the American paintings
which fully reflect Girolamo Devanna’s interests: these include drawings by Beatrice Wood (San Francisco
a pencil and watercolor work from 1925 that offers some of the typical elements of the American painter and ceramist’s graphic work
and for nineteenth-century Italian painting
in addition to the aforementioned De Nittis
the National Gallery of Apulia is a museum that attracts about 20,000 visitors each year: 2018
since the museum represents one of the richest collections in Apulia
seemed to him and his sister “the most reassuring structure for the preservation of the collection and for its development within the framework of a model not merely tied to localist schemes
which could represent a broadening of the cultural boundaries of our region.” A precious heritage that has thus become the heritage of all Italian citizens
who will always be grateful to the munificence of the Devanna brothers
To understand the work of Luigi Ghirri, you must reread the book Luigi Ghirri, l’amico infinito by his friend, publisher and photographer Claude Nori
who looks back on the Italian photographer’s career and their friendship and professional relationship
I wasn’t feeling well; I was homesick
So I took the train and arrived at Modena station in the morning
The future was ours; a field of enormous possibilities lay ahead of us
We were bound to build everything with the new photography that we loved and made us happy.” Both men belong to a generation of photographers who
questioned the art and its use towards a more sensitive
“The works of Luigi Ghirri,” writes Claude Nori
“were built on a territory whose farthest points were less than thirty kilometers away
infinite horizons that always seemed like a vast world for him to discover
sealed in his heart mainly filled with childhood memories.” In the new book Puglia
Luigi Ghirri pushed his field of vision a little further than thirty kilometers and went all the way to southern Italy
starting out with an exhibition of his work in the Spazio Immagine gallery that she managed in Bari
The “Still Life” exhibition about his series on objects found in the Modena flea market was a real success
an event itself: “There were many people there at the opening night: journalists
Bari’s intelligentsia.” The next day
over a coffee and seeing Luigi Ghirri’s satisfaction with the exhibition’s success
Gianni Leone suggests that he photographs the surrounding area: “It would be good if you would take photos in Bari
Why not give your own visual testimony of our region to spare it from false representations that conceal and insult it?” Luigi Ghirri does not react on the spot but eventually embarks on a relationship that will last many years between the region and the photographer
windows and arches conquer the photographer’s heart
always the sea and its unbeatable blue that the photographer captured
it is an exquisite land that perfectly suits his minimalist photography
He will come back to photograph the region almost every year
deepening his understanding of the territory a bit more on each visit
the book is seen as a movie and reminds us
“En Vespa” of the film Caro Diario (Dear Diary) by Nanni Moretti
where the Italian director walks around in an almost deserted Rome
was produced under the delicate and attentive gaze of Luigi Ghirri’s daughter
She tried to best respect her father’s philosophy
Luigi Ghirri is there without being there; his presence is felt in every image
and this impression is confirmed when we read the transcript in a conference at the Sorbonne in 1984 in Luigi Ghirri
where he said: “In Borges’s words
they would put together all their paintings and drawings and realize that they represented a huge mosaic of their visage
The initial idea of my photographic project/oeuvre could resemble that story
(…) A subtle thread that links autobiography and the outside world

Domestic Violence and Its Devastating Consequences: The Case of Lucia Chiapperini
The news of the murder of Lucia Chiapperini
has deeply shaken the community of Bitonto
The elderly woman was killed by her husband
in an episode of domestic violence that left everyone speechless
The images and audio recorded by the security cameras of their home tell a story of conflict and desperation
culminating in an unacceptable act of violence
the arguments between the spouses had become increasingly frequent and violent
especially after the death of Lucia's father
Witnesses say that the couple often argued about money
and that the situation had degenerated to the point that Lucia had decided to temporarily move in with one of her sons
who had brandished a knife during an argument
Lucia returned home and had a heated confrontation with her husband
The cameras recorded the moment when Vincenzo
Despite Lucia's attempts to defend herself and ask for help
uttering terrible phrases such as "Die" and "you don't even deserve compassion"
they found Lucia's lifeless body in the bathroom
while Vincenzo had taken refuge in the bedroom
with his hands and clothes stained with blood
This tragic episode is not an isolated case
Domestic violence is a phenomenon that afflicts many families in Italy and around the world
often silent and invisible until it explodes in acts of fatal violence
Lucia Chiapperini's story is a sad reminder of the need to seriously address the problem of violence against women
promoting a culture of respect and prevention
It is essential that institutions and civil society unite to fight this scourge
offering support to victims and severely punishing perpetrators

A murder that brings attention to the phenomenon of femicide in Italy
A tragic episode has shaken the community of Mariotto
A man of about 75 years old stabbed his wife
to death in an act that left everyone speechless
bringing with it a wave of disbelief and grief among residents
who wonder how such a tragedy could have happened within a family
the murder took place inside the couple's home
I killed my wife." This act of admission highlighted not only the seriousness of the situation
but also a possible attempt to face the consequences of his actions
where he allegedly attempted to take his own life
This tragic event brings the issue of femicide back to the fore
a phenomenon that continues to affect Italy and raises concerns among institutions and civil society
According to data provided by associations that deal with gender violence
the number of women killed by partners or ex-partners is unacceptably high
hundreds of women lose their lives due to domestic violence
The need for more incisive intervention by the authorities and greater awareness among the population has become increasingly urgent
The reactions to the news of the murder were immediate
Many citizens of Mariotto expressed their shock
calling for justice for the victim and a deep reflection on how to prevent similar tragedies in the future
Local institutions promised to step up efforts to combat gender violence
emphasizing the importance of awareness-raising and support programs for victims
This family tragedy represents not only a personal loss
He kills his wife with a knife and calls the police: tragedy this morning in Mariotto
The list of women killed by those who claimed to love them is growing
Femicide remains a deep wound in our society
which continues to manifest itself with shocking brutality
where a man has killed la wife inside their home
It hit the wife with a knife
then he took the phone and called the police: “Come
I killed my wife.” It happened this morning in Mariotto
a quiet hamlet in the municipality of Bitonto
The protagonist of the tragedy is a man of about 75 years old
a retired worker who stabbed his wife to death
a one-story building located in the center of the village
after the crime the man he allegedly tried to take his own life
found him locked in the bathroom and managed to get in to stop him
The military of the SIS (Scientific Investigations Section)
the coroner and the public prosecutor Angela Morea intervened on site to carry out surveys and start the investigations
They still remain to be clarified the causes that led to the extreme gesture. The femicide Lucia Chiapparino's death joins a long and painful list of women killed within the family
commented on the tragedy on his Facebook page:
"A life was shattered and with it the breath of the entire community
when the suffering of Our Lady of Sorrows speaks to us of a silent
this fact resonates with an even darker echo
There is only the silence of those who observe injustice and are hurt by it
Bitonto Eating Out
Sale in Zucca is the kind of place the phrase “unearthing a hidden gem” was coined for
this bar has all the hallmarks of an archaeological excavation
enjoying an exclusive and secretive catacomb vibe despite being on the city square
filled with beautifully preserved relics of another time
Far from stuffy, however, Sale in Zucca is like a party in a graveyard. Angelica Picoco – a self-confessed xenophile – has assembled a varied collection of artefacts inspired by her travels
re-purposed and customised to create a harmonious but lively interior under the magnificent vaulted ceilings of the building
This is not a place where furniture goes to die
but where it is reborn – a natural resting place for the stylishly vintage
Aside from the fantastic stone arches overhead and the rocking chair (we’re getting old)
our favourite feature is the ornately tiled bar
which is a very cool place to escape the southern summer heat
