PETERSEN QUARTETT CD.

Author: Milhaud, Lekeu, Chausson, Ravel
Year: 2001
Country or State of Origin: Germany

The quartet was founded in 1979 by students of Berlin’s Hanns Eisler conservatoire and its teachers. The ensemble has come to be regarded as the epitome of high calibre sound and fine musical timbre throughout Europe and North America. Founded in Berlin, the quartet owes its name to its first founding violinist of over 12 years, Ulrike Petersen. Guided by mentors such as the Amadeus Quartet, Sandor Vegh, and Thomas Brandis, the quartet won top prizes at the international music competitions in Evian in 1985, Florence in 1986, and at the ARD Competition in Munich in 1987. Today the quartet is a regular guest in all the major musical centres of Europe and beyond.

PINO AND THE SIGNORA’S PASTA.

Author: Written and Illustrated by Janet Pedersen
Year: 2005
Country or State of Origin: Massachusetts

The lucky strays of Rome dine on the Signora's pasta every night. One night, as his feline companions purr with satisfaction, Pino announces that he wants to taste something different. He skips the Signora's luscious meal and scampers through the streets of Rome, sampling fish from a fancy restaurant and pizza from a sidewalk café. Each time he is shooed away by angry servers and customers. He recognizes a familiar fragrance, an aroma so sweet my tail and whiskers are curling! He returns to his street where the Signora has a bowl of pasta waiting for him. Pedersen's text is bouncy and the humorous dialogue gives depth to the feline protagonist. Whimsical depictions of humans and cats enjoying delicious food set a beautiful stage. The lush mixed-media cartoons depict a soft Roman sunset that naturally darkens to night. Packed with flavor and amore, this delicious story should be shared with bambinos and their parents, along with a batch of fettuccine.

Pitkänen-Walter, Tarja: PAINTINGS IS THE GLEAM OF FLESH IN OUR EYES/ MAALAUS ON LIHAN KIILTO SILMISSÄMME.

Author: Nyberg, Patrik ed.
Year: 2003
Country or State of Origin: Finnland

The title of this small catalogue might sumarize something essential about Tarja’s work which is that they are meditations on the corporeality of painting and the feeding of our gaze: flesh and blood represented in wax, the honey of paint, leather cushions, the fabric clothing of a painting. In her works the sphere of meanings extends from the most conceptually abstract to the most gut-felt material; they literally treat and handle the sensual. Tarja’s works dissect the text, textile, texture and matter of the painting.
