language and aside from being an artist these two didn't have much and common but they did get to know each other through a common news and then a true friendship emerged and now a first to joint exhibition with some of their works is on display in switzerland. it's the first time works by these two giants of the art world francis bacon and i'll bet you have been shown together it may be hard to believe but only now has someone had the idea for a double exhibition after all the two were bound together by a short but intense friendship drac committee began by saying i think from this you are with greatest living artist and of course very close. to the said. you are the greatest living artist a mutual artistic appreciation that at first glance could seem puzzling their works appear so different make in the painter of tortured flesh this twisted heaps of

common. and i think most of them were very intense passive narrative big characters and so they're well made to meet richard. they met in london in one thousand nine hundred fifty eight yes that exist. sculptor and the irish british bohemian what did they have in common the exhibition offers answers such as the caged motif. cometti build shelters and experimental fields around his figures to explore their spatial proportions. and bacon's work the cages looked like prisons were theatrical stages on which he places his body. certain stylistic devices like the cage to concentrate attention on the image would be taken from jack committee and the striking parallels to both worked in tiny

cramped studios chaos as a source of inspiration both for social outsiders jack a metal was in love with a prostitute the bacon was gay and both had one in the same news isabelle rust or in the two artists together. both artists wanted to portray her because of this kind of animal vitality she had. and aftermath she was in love with. was in love with her. delicately intimidate june his girlfriend bacon splashed her on to the canvas wild and raw more a human animal than a woman but despite all the disfigurement it was their figurative thinking that connected them countless painted and sculpted portraits come together for the first time at the exhibition in basel switzerland. what's a show that is not truly is

a portrait of somebody it's much more so fault of their own entire more goods and everything seemed to be more of him was abstract out. they were like saval you votes from a great tradition. to unconventional minds swimming against the artistic tide of their day. and what else did they talk about. in a moment to move since they got the point right through the muck it's obviously with a lot to bring with so they can bring people to hardly commit to smoking to have a link and now for the first time the two artists works have come to gether in perfect harmony. when you're celebrating your eight hundred seventy fifth birthday then you'd expect to have a major party and that is what is planned for the german city of lubec the port

city already has a very special flair no where else in northern germany are so many houses preserved from the middle ages eighteen hundred of them are listed as protected sites making new back a unique go world heritage site but the city has a modern side to it as well which makes its inhabitants quite proud. this is how the northern german city of loopback is advertising its big anniversary . is not a typical big city. but let it work its magic on you the idyllic village it's my beautiful home town. it's cute. this city has been writing its history for eight hundred seventy five years many memorable events took place at mary's church. if you shoot the church has played a key role in lubec history as pictish but if we think of the time the city was

part of the hands the attic leadership the merchants and the various craftsman's associations had their chapels here in this church and were able to immortalized themselves here here all for even he had the task of mayors senators and important figures of the city hang here that much has happened here in the church. so mary's is one of the most important churches in northern europe for the anniversary passed the hobbit five leads visitors through his church in the evenings these are very special moment. back then ships left from here today it's a meeting place for amateur fisherman. blue bank was the heart of the hands yet again for the baltic sea region salt and dried fish made the merchants rich they also traded calls spices and other speciality is. lubeck was the queen of the hand the attic league for five hundred years as part of the city's anniversary celebrations its hanseatic museum is presenting a special exhibition showing the influence that period continues to have to this

day no where else in northern germany are there so many houses from the middle ages around eighty percent of the old town is a unesco world heritage site the city is also proud of its three famous sons philip hunt good to costs and thomas mann. because that's one of the fascination that comes from having three nobel laureates. lucic is i believe unique in germany i think this is simply a treasure for people who are interested in literature. and shouts i'm going to class immortalized his love for lubeck in a poem but lou because have long forgiven thomas mann for the fact the characters in his novel wooden box closely resembled prominent citizens and didn't exactly cut a sympathetic figure says but later did mom for twenty five years she has also worked with this museum the book imbolc house which is a magnet for tourists and locals it's also holding

a special exhibition for the big anniversary. it's one of the city's hot spots as it was in the middle ages the shopping streets around the city hall unusual businesses such as this small then in shops in an area that was once home to craft guilds like the city so special. that the city center is an island and you can do everything on the island there are many small shops and cafes in the city and everyone has a place where they can relax to work on. the people of lubec are bringing their heritage into the modern day you can drink coffee and his four hundred fifty year old merchant's house but that was not always the case you know. courtyards used to be where the wells were but also the out houses and cesspools today we use them for much nicer things we have a cafe here. as celebrates almost nine centuries this year its

people hope the many festivals and events will bring a lot of new life to the old city. hall that partying has certainly worked out my appetite and luckily for those in berlin you don't have to travel very far for international cuisine the german capital is a melting pot of cultures and some people who come here to visit like it so much. they decided to stay and open up restaurants like. there he decided to imitate a typical for region bresso levy right here in berlin for our series fifty kitchens one city he prepared one of his favorite dishes it's french of course so one of fifty. script bankers make sure there's nothing better in life than to spread a little joint to others you know i've discovered the best way for me to do that which is a sham good food good wine and a little humor with my guests from the more than just twenty thirteen frenchmen.

really appreciate it and what makes working here really fun is that they're happy to be educated when it comes to food and drink. does and they're always happy to take advice. or it's not always like that it's wrong because the french always think they know better than the trained star. in the us and fuck off. in france good food is a way of life. the french tradition of cuisine and fine dining goes back to the seventeenth century in those days it was reserved for the king and the nobility it was during this time that the first cookery books appear and even today they're still the go to textbooks for fine french cuisine. influence of for. food goes way beyond the country's borders it's become a benchmark for fine dining all over the world.

but each individual region of france has its own color unary specialties which is lead to great variety. of crowded soon to be a french tradition seasoning are used to bring out the flavor of the main ingredient such as pork belly for example. rather than the herds dominating the flavor of the main ingredient and that's one way to describe french cuisine and different conclusion and. taste of paris and berlin charlottenburg district it's a neighborhood that was once at the heart of former west berlin. the german capital covers an area of nearly nine hundred square kilometers making it eight times the size of paris. this enormous there has been heritage his love of berlin from his
