Use Of Words To Make A Paragraph

CONTINUES - BACKGROUND (but perhaps not the only)

( the background here)

The photos I took here

In Indeed, the idea was to contextualize a bit 'events, but started badly, with a digression.
The photo above refers to the Denver Art Museum, which dates back to 1971 and was designed by Gio Ponti , to be precise it is the North Building, since it was added in 2006, the Hamilton Building. In fact, the architect Milanese designer and has also achieved something here in the capital, the School of Mathematics at the University City, an example of the Rationalism of the '30s.






Gio Ponti How did we get? is simple: he designed the church of St. Luke the Evangelist in Milan, one of the photos of Confirmation. I did not remember, but now that I think, in fact, receiving at the time a certain pride in the neighborhood for having a church art. I discovered the author of the church hanging out on the web came across this pdf published by the Parish of St. Luke for the fiftieth anniversary, it speaks, Gio Ponti and the completion of the church, starting on page 61. There is also talk of Don Egidio, which is present in the photo that started everything for him remember it was rather feared by us kids to the parish for catechism, and a guy decided, recalling the comments of the mothers of boys, also very pleasing.
Anyway here's the church now, the days of Google Maps and Street View:

(since I finally contextualized?)

On the back of the complex, namely via Jommelli, you notice, apart from the prohibition of parking, basketball court:
not remember if it existed at the time; in fact I was not a great frequenter of the parish, but I remember there was a room that served as the auditorium, where the holy days of religious-themed films were shown, I think I've seen there Marcellino Pane e Vino, the English film '55 and above Death Takes a Holiday (Mexico, 1960); unforgettable, a boy about ten years, some scenes, the one with the skulls with the stalls to buy and take home, and towards the end, the cave with millions of candles (one for each human being): Death there gave evidence to the protagonist of the film as if it were his ability to end the life of any man on earth, simply turn off the corresponding candle.
What can I say? On the same street is the Casa di Cura Santa Rita, in the thick of one or two years ago to crazy episodes of poor health care, in that clinic was operated 2 times in 20 days, before adenoids and then appendicitis .
