This Christmas a unique collector’s item arrives in Mondadori Store bookstores, the product of a collaboration between Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, and THUN, a leading company in ceramic products and quality gifts since 1950.

It is the iconic angel symbol of the prestigious Bolzano-based brand, which for the occasion has been created in a unique limited edition design for Mondadori Store, holding a red book in warm Christmas colours. The exceptional hand-painted ceramic Christmas tree decoration, created by THUN designers, is conceived to share the magic of this time of year and promote the value of reading.

The two brands thus present the fourth edition of the special initiative aimed at Mondadori bookstore customers, following last year’s success with THUN’s signature porcelain Christmas mugs. A new collaboration born again this year from the communion of the founding values of the two entities, inspired by tradition, sharing and attention to every detail. The THUN angel and books from Mondadori Group publishing houses make the perfect Christmas gift for the homes of all lovers of reading and craftsmanship.

The angels will be free for all those who purchase 3 books from publishing houses AbraCadabra, Amz, De Agostini, Edizioni EL, Einaudi, Einaudi Ragazzi, Emme Edizioni, Fabbri, Frassinelli, Mondadori, Mondadori Electa, Piemme, Rizzoli, Sperling & Kupfer, Usborne and UTET, from 1 to 24 December 2024 at participating Mondadori Stores and Mondadoristore.it.

Our publishing house Rizzoli won the ninth edition of the Premio Strega Ragazze e Ragazzi 2024 in the 8+ category with the book “Rim and the Liberated Words” by Maddalena Vaglio Tanet.

With a story that makes us dream and reflect, the author reminds us that words are the key to freedom and awareness. “Rim and the Liberated Words” is among the top-rated books by very young readers representing the 318 schools that make up the jury.

The awards were presented this afternoon as part of “Più Libri Più Liberi,” the Fair of Small and Medium Publishers, in the Auditorium of La Nuvola, in the presence of about 1,000 primary and secondary school students from all over Italy and abroad.

The jury’s motivation: “Young Rim loves to collect words but lives in a country where words are captive and not available to everyone. There are not even schools. Words are therefore a privilege of the few and therefore not everyone can say what they think. Without words, in fact, there is no freedom of thought. Old Witzold will help Rim, through magical, fantastical and fairy-tale-like events, to recover ancient truths and, above all, to free the caged words. A compelling metaphor, as relevant as ever, for power and its abuse, the importance of language, and the utmost attention we must all pay to the free use of words and their knowledge, beginning in childhood years.”

The Electa publishing house is proposing a new project for the Electaphoto monograph series dedicated to leading contemporary photographers. Alongside the most famous names, there is also a series of little-known photographers, brought to light by careful studies with the aim of telling a ‘cultural’ story about photography in the 20^th and 21^st centuries.

The books, designed to be read and looked at, interweave text and images in a dialogue between languages, offering a new perspective on the photographers’ works and lives.

Mario Dondero (1928-2015)

Archaeologist, art historian and series editor Nunzio Giustozzi, together with Laura Strappa, curator and expert in photography and visual culture, will be the editors of the volume dedicated to internationally renowned Italian photojournalist Mario Dondero.

His monograph, divided into four sections, is distinguished by contributions from the most authoritative voices in journalism and culture, accompanied by a careful and extensive selection of photographs chosen by Dondero himself. This volume is the first comprehensive catalogue of his extraordinary work, organised chronologically and geographically to offer a visual narrative of the political, cultural and social events that shaped the ‘long’ century, chronicled through his lens.

Martha Rocher (1920-1990)

For the first time, Elisa Genovesi, an Italian researcher, and Raffaella Perna, a contemporary art historian and lecturer at the Sapienza University of Rome, will present the work of photographer and artist Martha Rocher, who interpreted the artistic and cultural panorama of 1950s Paris and 1960s Milan.

The selection of more than 250 black-and-white photographs, chosen from more than 1,600 prints kept in her private archive, depict the work and ateliers of the major exponents of the Avant-garde movements, including Yves Klein, Sonia Terk Dalaunay, Meret Oppenheim, and many others, offering an overview of the artistic climate of those years.

Giovanni Chiaramonte (1948-2023)

This series will also include the first major monograph on Giovanni Chiaramonte, the Italian photographer known for his philosophical approach, by internationally renowned Italian art historian Arturo Carlo Quintavalle in collaboration with the artist’s archives.

More than 400 selected photographs, some of his texts and an essay by Paolo Barbaro on Chiaramonte’s photographic focus on architecture have been organically arranged to make this volume complete and unique, testifying to one of the finest and most extraordinary perspectives in contemporary photography.
