Italian digital art company debuts an exclusive gallery of historic immovable masterpieces of Italian Renaissance art, with proceeds benefiting partner museums.

NEW YORK – December 9, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Leading Italian digital art curator Cinello announces the opening of MUSaEUM in New York, the first-ever showcase of Digital Artworks (DAW^®) in the Americas. The renowned and unique digital art house brings a hand-picked collection of old-world masterpieces from Michelangelo, Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and more to share with savvy art enthusiasts. The cutting-edge DAW^® technology is a world-first patented hardware that contributes to the digital dissemination and preservation of artistic heritage. The digitized paintings offer international audiences and collectors a compelling opportunity to experience time-honored artworks and includes the option to purchase a limited-edition digital reproduction. MUSaEUM in New York opens on Dec. 9 at the Italian Cultural Institute and is free to the public through February 2023.

Created by Cinello in partnership with the Italian museum that houses the original work, each DAW^® is produced as a new, certified, digital original – identical to the masterpiece from which it is derived. Of particular note, 50% of the proceeds from each sale is returned to the museum where the original work is showcased. In 2022, sales resulted in the equivalent of over 35,000 visitor tickets for partner museums, offering a significant amount of funds for the restoration and preservation of historic artifacts. 

“We are delighted to exhibit some of the greatest masterpieces of world art history in their digital version for the first time in New York. Our goal is the dissemination and support of artistic heritage,” says Cinello Founder & CEO Franco Losi. “We are honored to debut this futuristic art collection and display internationally, bringing marvelous and legendary Italian artworks and museum experiences to new audiences.” 

Curator Carlo Francini (UNESCO Florence Site Director) explains: “The title MUSaEUM in New York is a way for us to pay tribute to our cultural heritage and invite everyone to appreciate the beauty and uniqueness of the artistic treasures kept in our museums.” 

Seven foundations of Italian artistic heritage and three contemporary works were selected for display at MUSaEUM: 

• Canestra di frutta (Basket of Fruit) by Michelangelo Merisi (Caravaggio) – Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, Milan
• Ritrattodi Musico (Portrait of a Musician) by Leonardo da Vinci – Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, Milan
• Madonna del Padiglione (The Madonna of the Pavilion) by Sandro Botticelli – Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, Milan
• Presentazione di Gesù al tempio (The Presentation in the Temple) by Giovanni Bellini – Fondazione Querini Stampalia, Venice
• La Vergine e San Giovannino adoranti il Bambino (Our Lady and the young St John the Baptist adoring the Child) by Lorenzo Di Credi – Fondazione Querini Stampalia, Venice
• Santa Lucia (St. Lucy) by Sano di Pietro – Fondazione Monte dei Paschi di Siena

• Nostra Vita by Felice Limosani
• Energy by FabrizioPlessi
• La Realisme de L’abstraction by Emiliano Ponzi in collaboration with Vincenzo Lodigiani

MUSaEUM features digital multiples in 1:1 scale in a limited series, certified and non-duplicable, thanks to this innovative patented technology that guarantees its management. MUSaEUM is inspired by Federico Borromeo’s guidebook of the Pinacoteca Ambrosiana, printed in 1625. A true pillar of art guidebooks, it aimed to describe the artworks in the cardinal’s collection of Ambrosiana in a straightforward, easy and brilliant way.

A Cinello DAW^® includes a high-resolution hardware file of the work rendered as a digital edition, a certificate of authenticity signed by the director of the museum housing the original, the property rights of the DAW^® itself; and a handcrafted frame identical to the original art. DAW^®s cannot be transferred, deleted, or ‘burned.’ Each DAW^® permanently belongs to the buyer and is protected by Cinello’s international patents. After sale, the works are conveniently portable, able to be viewed anywhere, anytime at the buyer’s discretion. The first-ever Cinello DAW^® sale was of Michelangelo’s Tondo Doni in 2021.

A public panel discussion will be held on Friday, Dec. 9, at 5:30 p.m. at the Italian Cultural Institute (Istituto Italiano di Cultura) at 686 Park Avenue in New York City. It will feature guest speakers, including Brera Museum Director J. Bradburne, Ambrosiana Museum General Secretary Antonello Grimaldi, Lawyer Alessia Panella, and Founder and CEO of Cinello Franco Losi.

Readers Can Get a Head Start on New Year’s Transformation With The Saturn Diaries

MIAMI – December 9, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

A new year, a new beginning. For those already looking to shed your old skin and leave 2022 behind, look no further. Celebrity Tarot reader and author Rebecca Szymczak, aka Cardsy B, kicks off her book tour for The Saturn Diaries: A Modern Day Grimoire. Cardsy B’s debut book shares the irresistibly witty and raw account of seemingly having it all, and losing everything only to redirect inward to find healing and purpose by unlocking the power of intuition. The Saturn Diaries not only shares Cardsy’s healing journey; it shows readers how to start their own journey to healing.

First stop in the book tour: the Tierra Santa Healing House at the famed FAENA hotel in Miami on December 12th. At 7 pm, the evening starts with Elixirs and Cocktails followed by an energy update for the upcoming year, a Q+A hosted by Jenny Ponce of Miami Lit and Eugene Gant, and a closing meditation by Augustina Caminos. 

The Saturn Diaries is deemed by literary powerhouse Kirkus Reviews “A funny, confessional remembrance of finding redefinition in the cards,” and has already hit #1 in Occult and #4 in LGBTQ+ Memoirs on Amazon in presale.

A scrappy rebel from rural Pennsylvania, Rebecca Szymczak – aka Cardsy B, built the quintessential Manhattan life she always dreamed of consisting of high-level fashion jobs, celebrity friends and her own lingerie line. That was until the astrological transit known as Saturn’s Return stripped away her self-identity, career, marriage and security. Beneath the glossy, Instagramable surface loomed a battle with depression, anxiety and substance abuse she had to overcome. Following a harrowing dark night of the soul, she began to heal by revisiting her childhood hobby of pulling Tarot cards and in doing so, reconnected with her intuition. That’s when her life took her in an unexpected and magical turn.

Each chapter in this genre-bending memoir/spellbook concludes with a spell, elixir, or ritual that Cardsy B created throughout her healing journey. The Saturn Diaries is a hilarious chronicle of discovery and remembrance, perfect for diving into intuition this holiday season or as a gift for anyone needing to reclaim their inner magic.

Recent release “Life of a Soul: Under the Shadow of Gita” from Newman Springs Publishing author Ram Malik is an engaging work that shares a message of spiritual health as lovingly, compassionately, sensitively, courageously, and completely as possible with the ultimate hope of helping the readers through their journey of life.

PLEASANTON, Calif. – December 9, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Ram Malik, a retired mechanical engineer who spent decades working in the defense and IT industry, has completed his new book “Life of a Soul: Under the Shadow of Gita”: a fascinating work that allows readers to deepen their understanding of their connection to God through exploring their spiritual health. 

Upon retirement, the author renewed his studies in Karma yoga and devoted his time to the service to humanity by studying and lecturing on the spiritual philosophies of Bhagwat Gita. Through his personal and interpersonal experiences, the author has gained insight into the needs of the human soul, its origin, its likes and dislikes, and why it decided to land in a human body, and what is its final resting place.

Author Ram Malik writes, “This book is all about the human soul, its source, its presence, its journey, its nature, its desires and its connection with God, and its support system and its destination. Why and where the soul comes from, why and how does it decide to enter a human body. Sages say “soul is God miniaturized”; if so, what are the similarities between human soul and Supreme soul? What does the soul want? Thinkers say that soul wants nothing as Soul consciousness is only to experience the Divine. Soul is proof that God is a source of all humans and the universe and to know Him is to know all.” 

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Ram Malik’s intriguing work is designed to assist readers seeking to become closer to God. 

Readers who wish to experience this original work can purchase “Life of a Soul: Under the Shadow of Gita” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble.

Author Ram Malik’s New Book ‘Life of a Soul: Under the Shadow of Gita’ is a Compelling Spiritual Work That Shares the Author’s Learnings From 20 Years of Experience

GREENSBORO, N.C. – December 8, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Thomas Blackshear has completed his new book “The Child Support Felon”: a powerful and enlightening look at how the child support system unfairly treats parents, and a new proposed way to ensure that the system treats all parents fairly and keeps both parents involved in the lives of their children.

“This book is about my experience with the child support system in Ohio and how I met many obstacles dealing with the mother and the court system,” writes Blackshear. “Imagine being ordered to pay $1,200 a month for two children out of a monthly salary of $2,100 when you already are caring for an older child. Well that is what happened to me.

“I write about the key points throughout the process where I defy and then try to cooperate with the court, which led to my being charged with a felony for nonpayment and then imprisonment after a plea agreement had been reached, which the court did not honor. I talk about my time in prison and some of how the system works. I also detail how this affected my children, who were trying to establish a relationship with me before and after I got out of prison.

“At the end of the book, I write a proposal to change the child support system from one that is punitive to one that is a cooperation between parents that can eliminate the court completely based on what I tried to establish in my relationship with the mother. I offer a plan that will hopefully bring fathers back into their children’s lives by presenting a solution that is focused on the child instead of being punitive to a parent.

“This book is needed now because not only does it affect the people of lower income like myself, but I often hear rich celebrities complain about how the child support system needs to be changed. The object of the book is not only to make the system equal for both parents but to also keep fathers in the lives of their children.”

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Thomas Blackshear’s thought-provoking read is an impactful look at how the child support system often treats one parent unfairly, and shifts focus away from the wellness of any children involved.

Readers who wish to experience this poignant work can purchase “The Child Support Felon” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.
