About the Members’ Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport
The Goodwood Members’ Meeting is an epic weekend of motor racing founded by the Duke of Richmond, which aims to recreate the atmosphere and camaraderie of the original BARC Members’ Meetings held at Goodwood throughout the 1950s and 1960s.

As well as a full programme of racing, the Members’ Meeting features all kinds of cars from classic tin-tops and GTs, to motorcycles and open wheeled Formula 3 and F1 machines, offering visitors a friendly and intimate atmosphere with no crowds, thanks to being exclusively available to GRRC Members and Fellowship. A winning formula of spectacular cars, high-speed track demonstrations, fun-packed festivities and great entertainment; along with the very best food and drink. Joining the GRRC Fellowship is the only way to become a full GRRC Member.

About the Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard
First staged in 1993, the Goodwood Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard is the world’s largest automotive garden party; set against the spectacular backdrop of Goodwood House in West Sussex, UK. Over 600 cars and motorcycles spanning the phenomenal history of motoring and motorsport take part along with legendary figures from the automotive world. Highlights include Future Lab presented by bp, Electric Avenue, Forest Rally Stage, Michelin Supercar Paddock, Michelin Supercar Run, F1 paddock, Drivers’ Club, GAS Arena, Cartier Style et Luxe Concours d’Elegance, Aviation Exhibition and Bonhams Auction.

About the Goodwood Revival
The Goodwood Revival is the world’s greatest historic motor race meeting, and the only sporting event of its kind to be staged entirely in a period theme. More than just an unrivalled weekend of historic racing, it is a whimsical step back in time; an immersive celebration of a less disposable world, where “make do and mend” was a way of life rather than a casual slogan.

The Revival is, at its heart, a celebration of craftsmanship and sustainability, from an age when possessions were made to last and be cherished. It promotes a thoroughly modern ethos – to “reduce, reuse, repair, restore and recycle” – in the most authentic way possible. All the cars are original, having been lovingly maintained since new, many of the outfits have been handed down through generations, and even the retailers specialise in pre-owned artefacts – everything from clothes and accessories to automobilia and books.

It is, proudly, the world’s biggest and most glamorous second-hand event, encouraging attendees to embrace its Revive and Thrive ethos.

Watches and Wonders Geneva 2022

 Cerca de 40 casas de relojería para exponer en el Salón físico

Después de dos ediciones completamente digitales, se confirma que el evento clave de la industria relojera tendrá lugar en Ginebra, tanto en formato físico, en los pasillos de Palexpo, como digitalmente, a través de la plataforma watchandwonders.com. Casi 40 marcas de relojería y joyería se reunirán en esta cumbre de la relojería por primera vez durante 7 días, del 30 de marzo al 5 de abril de 2022.

La próxima Watches and Wonders Geneva, que se espera con impaciencia después de dos años de estar completamente online, ya se perfila para 2022. Más que una feria, esta cumbre relojera reunirá a los principales actores de la industria, con la llegada de nuevas marcas como como Hublot, TAG Heuer y Zenith del Grupo LVMH, Grand
Seiko, Oris y el joyero Van Cleef & Arpels que regresa al Salón.

Marcas de renombre como Chanel, Chopard, Patek Philippe, Rolex y Tudor también expondrán por primera vez en Ginebra. Por no hablar de otras importantes maisons, como Cartier, Hermès, IWC Schaffhausen, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Piaget, Ulysse Nardin y Vacheron Constantin, habituales desde hace muchos años.

Todos estos jugadores vibrarán al ritmo de una emocionante semana de la industria relojera y se presentarán en un solo escenario en Palexpo. El Carré des Horlogers acogerá a quince diseñadores-artesanos independientes en el centro de la exposición.

Un concepto híbrido y flexible.

Después de demostrar su agilidad en los dos últimos eventos, Watches and Wonders Geneva se está moviendo hacia un formato híbrido para que los visitantes puedan sobre todo tener una experiencia presencial pero también participar en línea, dependiendo del contexto cambiante de la pandemia.

Todo se ha pensado y organizado para garantizar que las presentaciones de productos, los lanzamientos de nuevos productos, las conferencias magistrales, las mesas redondas y las conferencias puedan ser seguidas en Ginebra por los visitantes in situ, pero también por aquellos que no pueden viajar, de forma remota, a través de www.watchesandwonders.com. Todo el contenido estará disponible en línea, en vivo o en repetición.

Pero nada puede reemplazar la experiencia en persona. Los actores de la industria han manifestado claramente su deseo de reunirse en torno a los productos. Quieren que sus invitados puedan ver y tocar las piezas excepcionales, discutir, debatir e interactuar en el sitio.

Relojes y maravillas Ginebra 2022 promete una vez más ser un gran éxito pero también un maravilloso reencuentro. ¡Ya sea en Ginebra o en cualquier otro lugar del mundo, programe una fecha para esta cumbre de la relojería líder, del 30 de marzo al 5 de abril de 2022!

After two entirely digital editions, the key watchmaking industry event is confirmed to take place in Geneva both in a physical format – in the halls of Palexpo – and digitally, via the watchandwonders.com platform. Nearly 40 watch and jewellery brands will gather at this watchmaking summit for the first time over 7 days – from 30 March to 5 April 2022.

The next Watches and Wonders Geneva, which is eagerly awaited after two years of being entirely online, is already shaping up for 2022. More than a trade show, this watchmaking summit will bring together the main industry players, with the arrival of new brands such as Hublot, TAG Heuer and Zenith from the LVMH Group, Grand Seiko, Oris and the jeweller Van Cleef & Arpels who is making its return to the Salon.

Reputed brands such as Chanel, Chopard, Patek Philippe, Rolex and Tudor will also be exhibiting for the first time in Geneva. Not to mention other major Maisons, such as Cartier, Hermès, IWC Schaffhausen, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Piaget, Ulysse Nardin and Vacheron Constantin, who have been regulars for many years.

All these players will vibrate to the rhythm of a thrilling watch-industry week and will be showcased in one single setting at Palexpo. The Carré des Horlogers will welcome fifteen independent designer-craftsmen and women at the centre of the exhibition.

A hybrid, flexible concept.

After proving its agility over the last two events, Watches and Wonders Geneva is moving to a hybrid format so that visitors can above all have a face-to-face experience but also participate on line, depending on the changing context of the pandemic.

Everything has been thought through and organised to ensure that the product presentations, new product launches, keynotes, panel discussions and conferences be followed in Geneva by visitors onsite, but also, for those who are unable to travel, remotely, via the www.watchesandwonders.com platform. All the content will be available online, live or in replay.

But nothing can ever replace in-person experience. Industry players have clearly stated their desire to get together around the products. They want their guests to be able to see and touch the exceptional pieces, to discuss, debate and interact on site.

Watches and Wonders Geneva 2022 promises once again to be a great success but also a wonderful reunion. Whether in Geneva or elsewhere in the world, make a date for this leading watchmaking summit, from 30 March to 5 April 2022!

Looking ahead to next year, the events will not only revert to the usual order – starting with the Members’ Meeting in April – but they will run at full capacity and bring back many popular aspects as well as new celebrations, moments, car launches and interactive customer experiences.

Members’ Meeting will remain the playground for Members and Fellows of the Goodwood Road Racing Club (GRRC), with a weekend of exceptional racing, high-speed demonstrations, off-track festivities and fireworks, and of course the unique school ‘house’ rivalry.

Festival of Speed 2021

Electric Avenue – the ultimate place for consumers to immerse themselves in the world of electric mobility – will be back after its debut in 2021.

Revival will once again host the world’s greatest weekend of historic racing, accompanied by fabulous vintage fashion and glamour, set within the iconic Goodwood Motor Circuit. Popular new initiatives for 2021, including the Make Do & Mend corner and Revival Car Boot Sale, will make a welcome – and enhanced – return, as Goodwood continues to celebrate and showcase sustainability and second-hand lifestyle, encouraging attendees to embrace the event’s Revive and Thrive ethos.

Goodwood Revival 2021

Further details and announcements on what will feature at this year’s events will be announced in the months ahead.

Commenting on next year’s events, The Duke of Richmond said: “I am thrilled that our much-loved, sell-out motorsport events will be making a spectacular return in 2022. Thank you to everyone who attended and partnered with the Festival of Speed, Revival and Members’ Meeting this year. Your loyalty and support after a challenging 18 months made them more special than ever, and we can’t wait to see you back at Goodwood again next year. It really will be a season not to miss.”

2023 ACURA INTEGRA COUPE

 Ford resurrected the Bronco, Lamborghini is bringing back the Countach, and Acura unexpectedly announced a new Integra for 2022.

It’s better-known for the NSX, but Acura built its reputation off the back of the more accessible Integra. It was one of only two models in the original 1986 launch lineup, and it’s coming back. Details are scant — the car won’t be unveiled until Spring 2022 — but it’s likely to be the same elevated version of the always-reliable Civic that won over car enthusiasts 35 years ago

.

Acura has done a perfect job of keeping the next-generation Integra under wraps. There have been no leaks or rumors, and our spies haven’t even spotted pre-production prototypes out and about. We consequently know very little about the car; the firm simply promised it will offer “the same fun-to-drive spirit and DNA of the original.”

The crunchiest crumb of information that we have is a sketch that shows part of the front end. It’s enough to tell with a high degree of certainty that the Integra won’t wear a retro-inspired design; sorry, fans of pop-up headlights. Instead, it looks like it falls in line with recent additions to the Acura range thanks to sharp lights with LED accents and an angular grille. There’s also a new interpretation of the Integra logo below the driver-side headlight.

LA MÚSICA Y SUS ARTISTAS, PROTAGONISTAS DEL CALENDARIO PIRELLI 2022

Por primera vez en la historia, el Calendario Pirelli se centra exclusivamente en la música con una serie de retratos de destacados nombres del rock y el pop bajo el sello y la potencia creativa de Bryan Adams

 La música y sus artistas, protagonistas del Calendario Pirelli 2022
La música y sus artistas, protagonistas del Calendario Pirelli 2022

Cher, Iggy Pop, Jennifer Hudson y Rita Ora forman parte del elenco de artistas protagonistas de On the Road, 48º Calendario Pirelli de la historia y que abunda en la vida en ruta de los músicos como tema principal.

El concepto es obra del fotógrafo de esta edición, Bryan Adams, que combina desde hace décadas su carrera como intérprete con su pasión por la fotografía.

La temática era una elección lógica para el guitarrista, cantante y letrista canadiense, “porque ‘on the road’ (en la carretera) es lo que he estado haciendo los últimos 45 años”, afirmaba Adams tras una doble jornada de rodaje plagada de estrellas celebrada recientemente en Los Angeles. “Viajar ha sido mi vida, en realidad”.

Un reparto brillante

El reparto incluye a la cantante estadounidense Normani, la letrista e intérprete Colombo-americana Kali Uchis, a la productora, letrista y cantante canadiense Grimes, al rapero nacido en China Bohan Phoenix y a la guitarrista, cantante y letrista estadounidense St Vicent, la rapera estadounidense Saweetie. Adams retrató a esta amalgama de estrellas en dos puntos emblemáticos de Los Angeles (el Palace Theatre, inaugurado hace 110 años y escenario de las actuaciones de Harry Houdini, Fred Astaire y Rita Hayworth, y el Hollywood hotel Chateau Marmont de Sunset Boulevard) luego en Capri en el famoso hotel La Scalinatella.

La aparición de iconos de la música no es novedad en el Calendario Pirelli –destaca la presencia de nombres como Bono, Jennifer Lopez, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Yoko Ono y Patti Smith–, pero la de 2022 será la primera vez en que la música será el tema principal del almanaque.

Al abordar este concepto, Adams ha querido capturar el dramatismo y el glamour de la vida en ruta, pero también la soledad y el tedio, aunque sin dejar de “sumergir en la fantasía” al espectador, ha detallado el artista canadiense.

Una mirada tentadora

“Sería muy, muy difícil encapsular todo lo que sucede cuando vas en ruta en apenas un par de días. Así que lo que he intentado ha sido reflejar algunos de los aspectos de este estilo vida”, afirma Adams, que en trabajos previos ha retratado a nombres de la talla de Mick Jagger, John Boyega, Naomi Campbell o hasta la Reina de Inglaterra, a la que fotografió en sus bodas de oro.

“Una de las características de los fotógrafos es que no quieres que lo que muestres sea normal, deseas que cada imagen tenga un punto memorable. Por ello, a la hora de concebirlas, tratas de crear ideas que liguen con el concepto de la vida en la carretera al tiempo que despierten una cierta fantasía”.

“Tendrías que hacer un book de cada personaje para explicar al completo su historia, así que he buscado ofrecer un vistazo  de cada artista; un vistazo interesante”.

La vida en la carretera

Adams (61) ha desarrollado conceptos, atmósferas e imágenes de una gran potencia junto al director creativo Dirk Rudolph, diseñador gráfico alemán con el que colabora desde 1996.

Los protagonistas del casting y su fotógrafo cuentan con multitud de experiencias previas en la materia, acumulando en suma casi 250 años en la carretera.

“Para mí, a nivel personal, ha sido un verdadero placer trabajar junto a otros músicos y poder entrar en su mundo y aunar todas sus experiencias –porque todo ha cambiado mucho, y la imagen se ha convertido en una parte esencial de la música”, afirma Adams.

El canadiense ha trabajado también en una serie de imágenes de naturaleza muerta que acompañarán a los retratos de On the road.

El retorno del Calendario

La edición 2022 del Calendario Pirelli marca el retorno de esta publicación legendaria, suspendida el año pasado como consecuencia de la pandemia. Ahora bien, no se trata de la primera suspensión histórica desde de su lanzamiento (ocurrido en 1964), ya que también ocurrió en 1967 y poco después entre 1975 y 1983 por motivos de austeridad.

Desde su primera edición, el Calendario Pirelli ha sido un espacio creativo abierto a los mayores talentos mundiales de la fotografía. Adams, el primer canadiense de la historia en asumir la tarea, se une a nombres de la talla de Norman Parkinson, Terence Donovan, Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz, Bruce Weber o Paolo Roversi –este último autor de la edición de 2020.

Adams, cuyas imágenes han aparecido en revistas como VogueVanity Fair o GQ, ha publicado también numerosos libros con sus fotografías, caso de American Women (2005), Exposed (2012), Wounded: The Legacy of War (2013), este último dedicado a veteranos de guerra británicos mutilados, y Homeless (2019). Ganador de varios premios Grammy, las canciones de Adams han llegado al número uno en más de 40 países y este 2021 lanzará su 15º álbum.

INFORMACIÓN DE PRODUCTO
Bvlgari se complace en anunciar que se ha firmado un acuerdo para un nuevo hotel en Roma, cuya apertura está programada para 2022.

El nuevo hotel romano estará estratégicamente ubicado en la céntrica Piazza Augusto Imperatore. Esto está en el corazón del barrio de Campo Marzio, a tiro de piedra de Via del Corso y Via del Babuino, los emblemáticos Pasos españoles y el buque insignia de Bvlgari en Via Condotti.

ACUERDO FIRMADO PARA UN HOTEL BVLGARI EN ROMA PARA ABRIR EN 2022
El nuevo Bvlgari Hotel Roma ocupará un magnífico edificio, propiedad de Edizione Properties, quien fue asistido por CBRE Hotels para la actividad de selección de inquilinos.

El edificio fue construido entre 1936 y 1938 con un diseño del arquitecto Vittorio Ballio Morpurgo. El edificio racionalista, que se enfrenta a dos de los hitos romanos más emblemáticos, el Ara Pacis y el Mausoleo de Augusto, el primer Imperator romano, que está actualmente en proceso de renovación, revela una arquitectura monumental y moderna enfatizada por el uso de materiales y colores romanos tradicionales. , como mármol travertino ocre y ladrillo rojo quemado.

El riguroso atractivo arquitectónico racionalista del edificio está contrarrestado por los frescos de Antonio Barrera, que se ejecutan en el atrio de la Via della Frezza y ofrecen diferentes vistas del Mausoleo de Augusto, mientras que la cara sur está decorada con un mosaico de 70 metros cuadrados de Ferruccio Ferrazzi, quien ofreció su interpretación personal del mito de la fundación romana.

En cuanto a los otros hoteles Bvlgari en el mundo, el estudio de arquitectura italiano Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel estará a cargo tanto del proyecto arquitectónico como del diseño interior del nuevo Bvlgari Hotel Roma, que contará con más de 100 habitaciones, la mayoría de ellas suites, como así como el prestigioso “Il Ristorante” curado por el chef con estrella Michelin Niko Romito y “The Bvlgari Bar”, ambos ubicados en el piso superior para garantizar una vista incomparable de la Ciudad Eterna. El hotel de lujo también incluirá una gama de instalaciones adicionales, que incluyen un spa de alta gama con una piscina cubierta y un gimnasio de última generación, que ofrece el exclusivo método de entrenamiento Taller de Bvlgari.

Como característica única, el Bvlgari Hotel Roma también presentará una Sala de lectura que contiene una colección de preciosos volúmenes dedicados a la historia de la joyería. Dicha biblioteca estará abierta a los invitados y al público solo con cita previa.
Destacando en la fachada del edificio, encima de una espléndida fuente, una inscripción en latín dice: “Este es el lugar donde el alma del emperador Augusto vuela por el aire”.

Este vínculo único entre el nuevo Bvlgari Hotel Roma y la visión del emperador Augusto se resaltará con un diseño interior que equilibre el rigor de las piedras utilizadas en la Roma imperial, detalles concisos pero potentes, así como texturas ricas que contrastan con la esencialidad arquitectónica del edificio. . Combinando a la perfección diferentes referencias a la herencia romana única con el estilo contemporáneo y atemporal de Bvlgari, el nuevo Bvlgari Hotel Roma celebrará la extraordinaria magnificencia de su ciudad natal y dará la bienvenida a sus huéspedes en un entorno excepcional y único.

“Estamos particularmente orgullosos de haber asegurado una ubicación tan extraordinaria para el nuevo Hotel Bvlgari en Roma”, dice el CEO de Bvlgari, Jean-Christophe Babin. “Este hotel, que se inaugurará en 2022, representa un logro notable para Bvlgari que finalmente tendrá su propio ‘templo’ en la ciudad donde se fundó la Compañía y que todavía representa el corazón de la marca. Será, con mucho, la experiencia de hospitalidad más lujosa de Roma jamás vista ”.
“Junto con todas las partes, públicas y privadas, involucradas en este importante proyecto, estamos orgullosos de haber planeado y ejecutado esta gran inversión inmobiliaria de clase mundial en Roma, un lugar clave para Edizione Property”, dice Mauro Montagner, CEO de Edizione Property SpA .

Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts, fundada en 2001, ha alcanzado algunos logros notables, ya que es la única colección de hoteles de lujo italianos con destinos en todo el mundo, y es, con mucho, el grupo hotelero más grande marcado por una marca de artículos de lujo con todas sus propiedades líderes en sus respectivos mercados
