Filmed with a dozen small body-mounted cameras, the documentary epic Leviathan plunges the viewer into the obscure waters surrounding Bedford, Massachusetts, once the world’s whaling capital, from where Herman Melville’s Pequod set sail in Moby Dick (1851). At the heaving waterline, fish and fishermen punctuate the darkness as the engines grind on through the night. What began as an investigation into the fishing industry becomes a study in the even greater struggle between humans, machines and nature.
Giorgio de Chirico was born on July 10, 1888, in Volos, Greece, to an Italian family. His mother, Gemma Cervetto, was from a family of Genoa origin, but most likely she was born in Izmir. His father, Evaristo, was born on June 21, 1841 in the Büyükdere district of Istanbul.
In 1493, exactly 500 years ago, Leonardo da Vinci was finishing the preparations for casting the equestrian monument (4 times life size), which Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan commissioned in memory of his father some 12 years earlier.
