About an hour ago was released by HBO a new teaser that heralds the eagerly awaited eighth season of Game of Thrones, it’s Aftermath. The new video shows us an epic battle to come: now we know that in Winterfell the Army of the Dead will clash with that of the living.
Rumors have it that this battle is likely to leave the ground of Winterfell totally destroyed, although more details will be revealed in the third episode of season eight.
Watch now at the teaser below:
Macedonian graphic designer and artist Enkel Dika, aka Buko, like galaxy a lot, so much so that he has chosen as the main protagonist of his illustrations just an astronaut, who wanders in the cosmos.
And so the Milky Way finds itself closed in a bottle, where time is suspended, where the cosmos and the galaxy have been captured forever. The astronaut’s emotions are impenetrable, indecipherable to be read through the reflective mirror of his helmet, which always shows what’s outside.
Probably the cosmos, which is often associated with chaos, represents man’s existential search, which alternates moments in which he wanders in nothingness with moments in which, precisely, he wanders in primordial chaos.

It was 2017 when rapper MadMan and Milanese brand Octopus worked together for the first time. Now, two years later, this collaboration is renewed with a project made to celebrate the world of video games. In the Fuze Them All capsule collection, Madman had the opportunity to encapsulate all his passion for the world of video games, and one in particular, Rainbow Six.
The collection, which was created in collaboration with Ubisoft, consists of a sweatshirt and two t-shirts inspired in particular by Madman’s favorite character, Fuze, from which the entire collection takes its name.
The Fuze Them All is a limited edition entirely Made in Italy and only 150 pieces have been made per garment. The entire capsule collection will be available from Friday, April 5 at the Octopus Online Store and at the IUTER Store in Milan.
It’s called Esposiziometro and it’s the latest project by Alessio Pomioli e Collater.al that comes from the desire to give voice and visibility to painters, photographers, poets, sculptors,
To act as a forerunner, just on the day of the inauguration, from 16:30 to 21:30 there will be the works of Federico Ricotti. Born in 1992, Federico studied illustration and is dedicated to the creation of paintings characterized by a colorful and dry style, minimal and direct, which does not allow personal interpretations.
On the occasion of the launch, we had a chat with Federico who told us about his art.
Tell us a bit about yourself, your history, your background and what led you to dedicate yourself to the world of art.
Initially, I attended the art school for graphic design, but in this course, there were scientific subjects for which I was never brought, so I decided to change school to devote myself exclusively to artistic subjects. Afterward, I was an assistant photographer for a long time, but this experience immediately bored me and gave me the impetus to enroll at the IED, where I graduated in Illustration. I don’t think that what I do is exclusively related to what I’ve studied, it’s more a need that manifests itself spontaneously: I don’t use particular techniques, so I may well not have any academic training to do what I do. Through art I express my emotions and outside of what I feel, using a canvas and a brush.
Your works are characterized by bright colors and pop, what lies behind this choice?
I think that colors are often much more important than the drawing itself, in fact, the part that takes me the longest is precisely the choice of the right shade. With this, I don’t want to diminish everything else, but the color of the background is fundamental and I, personally, prefer pink.
In your artworks, there seems to be a naive and childish stylistic research. How did you get to this simplification?
I find it useless to make intricate or hyper-realistic drawings, if you want to convey something or make the viewer feel emotions, you need simplicity. You don’t need a thousand squiggles, but you really don’t need much: in the end, the way I paint reflects the way I see life.
On Sunday 14th April you will be the forerunner of the Esposiziometro, what will the spectators who will pass through Eppol Milano find?
Those who look at my works will find a part of me and of what I have experienced in my life.
