So, I just got back from a class abroad and we studied the rivality between the artists Borromini and Bernini. My friends and I spent the next two weeks talking about their "forbidden love" and how men should really learn to confess to each other instead of building beautiful things to spite the other. Anyways, it made me think of bellesco. A rivalry between artists, but make it Bellini and Tedesco. Would you be interested??

Artemisia Gentileschi is one of the first female painters in history. A strong and intelligent woman, she fought against stereotypes. She was raped but rebelled against her rapist, who was convicted. She was friends with the great scientist Galileo Galilei, with whom she exchanged letters expressing her thoughts. This woman was courage and passion.

Helical whirlwind of thoughts, Borromini.

Would you like to play with me?
