"Such, gentlemen, is my secret. It is simple, and, like most simple things, it cannot fail to succeed. The dilation and contraction of the gas in the balloon is my means of locomotion, which calls for neither cumbersome wings, nor any other mechanical motor. A calorifere to produce the changes of temperature, and a cylinder to generate the heat, are neither inconvenient nor hea...(展开全部)

1931年生于意大利米兰，从博拉艺术学院毕业之后从事插画工作。她对学龄前儿童的语言及沟通方式特别感兴趣，这主要是因为在养育两个孩子的过程中，发现市面上的童书多半要成人的协助及诠释才能让孩子了解。这激发了她的创作灵感，她决定为孩子创作出能够轻易看懂的书。艾拉的每一个画面都要经过深思，并且要和实物反复比对，最后呈现出清晰的图像。这样的图像更能帮助孩子了解大自然复杂的演变过程。 艾拉曾得过许多国际性的奖项，包括两次意大利波洛尼亚国际儿童图画书美术设计推荐奖。主要作品有《鸡和蛋》、《这是谁?的尾巴？》、《红气球》、《苹果与蝴蝶》、《树之歌》等。她的作品在欧洲及美洲广获好评。

A Magazine 的联合出版人Patrick评价安特卫普最知名的服装设计师之一Martin Margiela策划的那期A Magazine时说，Martin Margiela用杂志“build his own world”。 “建造一个自己的世界”最能清楚地描述A Magazine在杂志领域是一个怎样的异类：它完全打破了杂志的规则，让每个“策划者”可以按照自己的意愿“建造”一个他们自己的“世界”，做策划，邀请自己的朋友，完成选题等等。Martin Margiela借用这个机会，邀请了众多朋友、合作者来闲聊，比如最初他们如何认识的，其时这些人正在做些什么事情等等，通过一个历时的叙事方式回忆那些鲜活的细节，当时和现在的生存状态，从而基于时间建造了一个“世界”。 另一位服装设计师Haider Ackermann却似乎在利用杂志建造一个“潜意识世界”：没...(展开全部)
