INSPIRATION FROM AROUND THE WORLD FOR AN AESTHETIC AND MEANINGFUL LIFESTYLE
Was braucht es, um zu wachsen? Hindernisse vielleicht. Fehler. Angst – und ganz bestimmt auch Mut. Aber vor allem eines: Stille. Und ein paar tiefe Atemzüge. Am besten an einem Ort, an dem Stille laut sein darf, getragen von sanfter Musik und liebevollen Stimmen. Ein solcher Ort sind die Arise Body & Mind Studios der Alto Hotel Group in Lana und Bozen in Südtirol.
In the Mountains of India, One Finds the Meaning of Life—or so they say. Especially on Hippie Hill. The spiritual energy of the Kasar Devi Temple extends all the way to The Kumaon, a design retreat featuring minimalist architecture by Pradeep Kodikara and Jineshi Samaraweera. Here, ample space and tranquility provide the perfect setting for a healing quest for truth, wisdom, and freedom. We reach the peak of regeneration through these five experiences that make a stay at this secluded resort truly unique:
Ah yes! This is what it feels like when you find your inner self again. In everyday life, we often get lost in work or other distractions and forget to be mindful of ourselves. But there are places that can help you to embark on this powerful journey again. For example, the four-star Hotel Alpin Juwel - a gem with a holistic detox retreat.
Certamente, Venice belongs on the bucket list and probably some of you reading these lines have already strolled through St Mark's Square, stopped for a Bellini at Harry’s Bar or been to the pavilion show at the Biennale. But what about organising a party in the Serenissima? No? Eureka! We've found something. A hotel in a historic palazzo in the sestiere Cannaregio that can be booked for events.
It's a real pleasure to go out for a good meal, isn't it? How about a table at the newly opened Luna Restaurant in Bolzano? A retreat in the centre, an Italian feast with international guest performers, a highlight of the Parkhotel Mondschein. Do we want to sit inside under the glass ceiling? Or outside on the terrace with a view of the park?
Can an Ancient Asian Tea Ceremony and a Mallorcan Stone Courtyard Tell the Same Story? At first glance, it may seem unlikely—but upon closer inspection, they share a profound connection: harmony with nature, simplicity, and respect for tradition. At Es Racó d’Artà, a tranquil retreat in the untouched northeast of Mallorca, Asian influences blend naturally and seamlessly into the surroundings.
At Voorlinden, Nick Cave (1957) has his first solo museum exhibition with his series The Devil – A Life. The Australian artist is primarily known as a musician but studied visual art in his earlier years. In this series, Cave narrates the life of the devil, from his birth to his death, through seventeen hand-painted ceramic figures. Museum Voorlinden has acquired the entire series.
In the 1940s, a small yet influential movement emerged in sunny California: the Nature Boys. Inspired by a return to nature, alternative lifestyles, and philosophical currents from East and West, they lived a way of life that can be seen as the precursor to the hippie movement. Who were these pioneers of mindfulness and self-sufficiency, and what impact did they have on society?
The BRUSEUM is dedicating an exhibition to the drawings of Hermann Nitsch, shedding light on an often overlooked aspect of his extensive artistic work. While his monumental splatter paintings and the spectacular performances of his Orgien Mysterien Theater take center stage, his drawings offer an intimate glimpse into the origins and depths of his conceptual world.
