Cai Guo-Qiang, a Chinese artist known throughout the world for his exciting performances with fire, presents in this volume the works created in Naples as part of the project 'In the Volcano'. With these works, resulting from his 'explosion workshop', the artist created a short circuit between our present and the memories of ancient Rome. Cai Guo-Qiang, as a modern Prometheus, plays with his mastery in dominating the fire, and drawing on the powerful and suggestive traditions of the oriental world he crafts pyrotechnic works and performances with which he invites us to rediscover the inescapable bonds between the classical past and the modern sensibility, and in particular between the explosion that in 79 A.D. destroyed Pompei - paradoxically preserving it for us - and artistic creation.

This book is exceptional. It is the first work devoted to the wines of Château Rayas.Rayas is not a wine like any other. It is a myth, a mystery, a monument of rare purity. Those who have had the chance to taste it know that it is much more than just a grape variety. It is a legend, a mystery, a monument of rare purity. It is the song of the earth that is captured here, through the sand and light, the silence of the forests, the time that this wine carries within it.Page after page, this book opens the doors to a world that rarely shows itself and therefore remains a legend for many.
