Yesterday I went to the Academia. I saw the exhibit about Amore with chastity chests that displayed Renaissance gender customs. Michelangelo’s sculptures were massive and potent. The Prisoner was writhing and twisting out of the stone. The big glass window above David was impressive.
Today I went to lunch with Steph and Betsy and had lasagna and pizza. I met up with Rachel to go to the Teatro Comunale to see Salome. Salome was avant garde with nudity, gold dust, a big vault, setting in a casino and lasciviousness galore.
