18/5 Besame se mueve Por Villa Bonin @ Villa Bonin https://www.facebook.com/events/1278217219008391/

Nata proprio a Villa Bonin, Besame è ormai un must in tutto il Nord Italia e pure altrove.  Il divertimento e l'energia di Besame, l'evento "mas caliente" si uniscono alla magia della primavera per un party decisamente perfetto per scaldarsi in attesa della stagione che tutti stiamo già aspettando, l'estate... i sound (reggaeton, electro latino & pop house) di questo appuntamento sono semplicemente unici e gli show che prendono vita sul palco lasciano a bocca aperta. Per definire Besame senza troppi problemi lo staff ha coniato uno slogan facile da capire e soprattutto ballare: global pop movement.

A Villa Bonin il divertimento inizia già dall'aperitivo L'idea giusta a Villa Bonin è sempre quella di arrivare già all'ora di cena, anzi all'ora dell'Aperitivo, che è firmato Martini. Lo staff di sala e di cucina del ristorante di Villa Bonin sa sempre come stupire gli ospiti di questo spazio. Si sceglie tra tante proposte diverse (piatti di pesce o di carne, hamburger gourmet, insalatone, pizza d'autore), tutte di qualità. E il divertimento con gli amici inizia presto, senza aspettare le ore piccole.

NB: i party a Villa Bonin prendono vita anche in caso di maltempo.

UK Fulbright Specialist in Croatia

Submitted by the School of Art and Visual Studies

Paolo Visonà, an Associate Professor Adjunct in the School of Art and Visual Studies, recently served a Fulbright Specialist at the universities of Rijeka and Zadar, in Croatia, after being awarded a grant by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. The grant was administered by the World Learning Organization. A Mediterranean archaeologist and a numismatist with expertise in the pre-Roman coinages of Punic North Africa and on the coinage of Issa, an ancient Greek city on the island of Vis in today’s Dalmatia, a region made famous by the filming of the “Games of Thrones” HBO series. Visonà was invited by his Croatian colleagues to give a series of lectures and workshops on the monetary circulation in this area of the Adriatic before the Roman conquest. For over a century, an unusual concentration of finds of hundreds of bronze coins of ancient Carthage, Numidia, and Ptolemaic Egypt in northern Dalmatia and northwestern Bosnia has puzzled archaeologists and historians. During his stay, Visonà was given unprecedented access to this material, and he had the opportunity to discuss with Croatian students and scholars a new research methodology known as “coins in context”, which entails the study of all the datable evidence associated with the coins found in a stratigraphic excavation.

One of the main goals of the Fulbright Specialist Program is to foster the exchange of ideas and to promote a scholarly discourse between members of the American academic community and their foreign hosts that may forge links between individuals and universities and allow them to participate in joint projects. After an application to join the Fulbright Specialist Roster has been accepted, a person is eligible for up to two grants within a 5-year period. Under the auspices of this program, Visonà’s Croatian hosts took him to several museums and archaeological sites. They also asked him to collaborate in the publication of the pre-Imperial coin finds from northern Dalmatia. In addition, the possibility of organizing an archaeological project involving faculty and students from the University of Kentucky was discussed. UK’s Department of Anthropology has advanced instruments and a special expertise in terrestrial remote sensing techniques, which would be particularly useful at Iron age hillforts in northern Dalmatia and at the site of Issa on the island of Vis. Last May Visonà and George M. Crothers, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Kentucky and Kentucky’s State Archaeologist, who have co-directed three archaeological projects in Italy since 2010, were invited to Vis to examine the possibility of conducting a geophysical survey aimed at locating two of Issa’s temples and the city’s Roman forum. While he was in Dalmatia as a Fulbright Specialist, Visonà was given a tour of the island by the resident archaeologist, and he identified the coins found in the 2017 excavations. He also was able to complete research on the coinage of Issa, since most Issaean coins are kept in Croatian museums. This mint study will be published in the monographic series of the Archaeological Museum at Split.
