Ulrich Bergfelder has worked with the director Werner Herzog on several films, frequently involving exotic locations and enormous logistic difficulties. Fitzcarraldo tells the story not only of one man´s obsession to bring opera to the Amazonian jungle but also of the director´s parallel obsession to bring his vision to the screen.

The great collection of antiquities in early modern Europe are usually associated with male collectors, such as Roman cardinals. Isabella d´Este is probably the best known female collector of anticaglie in renaissance Italy, but she is often seen as the exception to proves the rule. This illustrated talk looks at some of the less familiar female collectors, they objects they wishes to own, and the rooms and pieces of furniture they used for display.
