	Explosives firm weighs steps against Madonna over Semtex - 02-03-2006 - Radio Prague
		International icon Madonna may be enjoying phenomenal success with her new album "Confessions on a Dance Floor", but her lawyers may have to inform her she's made something of a slip-up.
		According to reports, the singer founded a new company called Semtex Girls Ltd. - a move that puts her potentially at odds with the Czech explosives company that developed the Semtex plastic explosive made infamous by terrorists in the 1980s.
		But, the singer has been more than a little secretive, remarking only that "the Semtex girl is a girl who is dynamic, a girl who explodes, who doesn't know the meaning of 9 to 5 and is...

	slant // magazine.com: Music Review - Madonna: I'm Breathless
		Madonna could never be satisfied with just a '40s Big-Band concept album, of course; "Now I'm Following You," a duet with co-star Warren Beatty, segues into a dance remix that includes a Socrates quote ("An unexamined life is not worth living") that, in typical Madonna fashion, she twists to fit her own post-modern interpretation.
		The album's final track, the hugely influential "Vogue," at first seems grossly out of place, but with its homage to old Hollywood, the track is ultimately a more than fitting finale to a daring album.
		Preceding Evita and, hell, even Chicago, I'm Breathless proves that Madonna is a true renaissance woman who has literally done it all.

	CBC Arts: 'Madonna' makes surprise appearance at Munch trial
		Just before the proceedings were to resume, a man tossed a forged version of Edvard Munch's Madonna onto the steps of the Oslo court.
		The incident did not disrupt the trial, at which one of the six defendants testified that he had seen the stolen masterpieces The Scream and Madonna wrapped in a garbage bag at a northern Oslo farm.
		According to the Aftenposten newspaper, defendant Stian Skjold testified Thursday that his participation in the crime began about a month after the actual robbery, when he received a phone call and was asked to fetch the stolen paintings to turn them over to another of the defendants, Thomas Nataas.

		It is also a ten minute (the less easy, but nearer steps) or fifteen to twenty minute (the much nicer, Madonna della Rocca steps) walk down to the main street.
		But it should be frankly noted that there are a lot of steps to deal with if you stay here--it would be a bit of a challenge for families with very young children or older couples.
		To go from your room to the restaurant, for example, you might have to climb up steps, cross the road, and go down steps on the other side--not necessarily easy to accomplish with a baby stroller, for example, as we saw one young mother struggling to do while we were there.

	Michelangelo
		His work here included two marble reliefs, a Madonna of the Steps (Casa Buonarroti, Florence), carved in rilievo schiacciato and showing the influence of Donatello (Bertoldo's master) and a Battle of the Centaurs (Casa Buonarroti, Florence), based on Bertoldo's bronze Battle of the Horsemen, which itself appears to be based on an antique prototype.
		Either at this time, or when he was in the Ghirlandaio workshop, Michelangelo also studied from and drew copies of the frescos of Giotto and Masaccio.
		The Medici funerary chapel (planned from 1520, abandoned when the Medici were temporarily expelled from Florence in 1527, recommenced in 1530 and left incomplete in 1534) was intended to be a fusion of architecture and sculpture accommodating the tombs of four members of the family.

	Flat but not squashed: Donatello's Ascension is the centrepiece of a rewarding exhibition at the Henry Moore Institute ...
		The technique demands instead delicate chiselling and engraving of the stone to suggest modelling and recession in space in a depth of relief often little thicker than a postcard.
		It requires virtuoso draughtsmanship, as Michelangelo discovered when he stumbled over the foreshortening of the feet in his youthful exercise in the technique, The Madonna of the steps.
		Donatello took the technique to an unsurpassed peak of refinement in the Victoria and Albert Museum's The Ascension with Christ giving the keys to St Peter, carved in about 1430.
