Umberto Pettinicchio

**Umberto Pettinicchio** (born 1943) is an Italian painter and sculptor. He was born in Torremaggiore, a town in Apulia. Later, he moved to Milan. In Milan he studied art at the Accademia di Brera. He had his first exhibition in 1969. His early paintings were in the expressionist style. His later paintings were more abstract. His 1981 painting _The Death of the Bull_ is held in the Museo de Arte Moderno y Contemporáneo de Santander y Cantabria.

Umberto Pettinicchio was trained at the Brera Academy and in 1969 he began to exhibit in his first solo exhibitions, including at the Nuova Sfera, Milan, 1973 (curated by Carlo Munari), in 1977 at the Rome Triptych, in 1974 at Il Castello di Milano, in 1975 (edited by Raffaele De Grada). In 1976 Pettinicchio opened his Milan studio in via Bolzano, where he produced some of his important works with which he achieved international fame.

In the 1980s, he was always present at the most important exhibitions (at the Salotto di Como in 1980, at Il Castello di Milano in 1981, at Il Mercante di Milano in 1982), and was also enriched by important Spanish exhibitions (Sargadelos, Barcelona, 1982 , Piquio, Santander, 1982, at the VIII Madrid Biennial, 1983).

## Style

The artist Umberto Pettinicchio has often dealt with the human figure in his pictorial research, initially in an expressionist style. Subsequently, his pictorial style becomes more and more abstract until finally reaching the Informal. Only a vaguely perceptible appearance remains of the figure, while, from a formal point of view, everything is distorted in the artist's pictorial gestures. Pettinicchio's gesture breaks the dimensional planes and transforms the human figure into a shapeless matter marked by large black lines. The one carried out by Pettinicchio seems a kind of brutalist operation in the vein of a Jean Dubuffet, but while the French gave much more importance to the subject, our artist solves everything through pictorial writing.

Siege of Leningrad

The **siege of Leningrad** was a siege in Leningrad during World War II. The siege started on 8 September 1941, when the last road to the city was severed.

Although the Soviet Union forces managed to open a narrow path to the city on 18 January 1943, the siege was only stopped on 27 January 1944, 872 days after it began. It is thought of as one of the most destructive sieges ever to happen. It was possibly the heaviest in terms of casualties, killing over 1 million innocent people.
Also, because of the siege, no food was allowed to enter Leningrad, leaving the residents to eat things such as:
- Cats
- Sawdust
- Horses
- Wallpaper paste
- Human flesh (e.g babies)
- Anything that could be salvaged and was edible

Because of the German operations, no people or supply trucks were allowed to enter or leave the city, leaving the occupants without food often for weeks or months. Sometimes in winter an "ice road" operated on the ice of Lake Ladoga, bringing some food and supplies into the city and evacuating some civilians and wounded soldiers.

Corbynmania

**Corbynmania** is enthusiastic support for Jeremy Corbyn who was elected as leader of the Labour Party in 2015.

Hundreds of supporters turned out to hear him speak at the hustings across the nation and their enthusiastic reception and support for him was dubbed "Corbynmania" by the press.

A chant of "Oh, Jeremy Corbyn" has now been adopted as an anthem or chorus by his supporters.  This is sung in the style of "Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes.  It attracted especial attention at the Glastonbury festival of 2017, where Corbyn appeared and spoke to the crowds.
