Ghali at a recording studio in Milan.
“As Italy's right-wing government takes a hard line on Mediterranean immigration, the hip-hop artist Ghali has become a prominent voice of compassion. 
In the chorus of one of Ghali’s biggest hits, “Cara Italia” (“Dear Italy”), he sings: “When they say to me ‘Go home,’ I answer, ‘I’m already here.’ I love you dear Italy.” It’s not only xenophobic Italians who are unable to grasp that Italy is home to someone like Ghali. Fans who profess their love for him still ask, “When did you come to Italy?” The persistent perception of Ghali as foreign stems in part from how Italy understands itself: as a country of epic emigration, not immigration.”

Damien Hirst portrayed in Palazzi Grassi, Venice, Italy.
One of the richest visual artists in history, Hirst revels in the magnetic effect money has, attracting or repulsing hearts and minds. Both his 2007 diamond-paved skull and his 2008 retrospective-cum-auction at Sotheby’s, which made $200 million, set Guinness World Records. But this year’s monstrously monumental Venice show, “Treasures From the Wreck of the Unbelievable,” makes those earlier works seem almost like appetizers.

The Queen Mothers, Werewere Liking and Nserel Njock, sisters in real life, were born in Cameroon, live in Ivory Coast, but are “from Africa”, they respond to anyone who dares ask what country they are from. They sing, act, and are general cinema celebrities. They visibly enjoyed having their portrait taken, here in the projection room of cinema Patte d’Oie, on the periphery of Ouagadougou. © Andrea Frazzetta for The New York Times Magazine
