An accomplished, flamboyant impresario of all the arts, Diaghilev became a legend. From a minor noble family in remote Perm, he became a central figure in the artistic worlds of Paris, London, Berlin, and Madrid during the golden age of modern art. He lived through bankruptcy, war, revolution, and exile; furthermore he lived openly as a homosexual, and his liaisons, most famously with Nijinsky, and his turbulent friendships with Stravinsky, Coco Chanel, Prokofiev, and Jean Cocteau gave his life an exceptionally dramatic quality. Scheijen's biography, based on extensive research in little-known archives, brings to life a complex and powerful personality with boundless creative energy.--From publisher description.

Includes bibliographical references.From July 12th 2019 to January 5th 2020, the Fondation Cartier presented "Trees", an ambitious exhibition devoted to trees, these exceptional living beings with unexpected faculties and yet widely threatened today. Boasting sensory and motor skills, capable of communication, existing in symbiosis with other species and the climate, trees are equipped with unexpected faculties whose discovery confirms what traditional knowledge has long since incorporated. The veil has been lifted on a fascinating world -- the world of plant intelligence -- which could be the answer to many of today s technological and environmental problems. "Trees" allows readers to discover all of the works presented in the exhibition through almost 500 images, as well as a rich ensemble of scientific and critical texts. -- From product description
