The sequel of "Call Me By Your Name" is coming soon...

Author of the novel "Call Me By Your Name" André Aciman, has announced that he is writting the sequel of the romantic story.

As we read in Vogue Hommes, the second novel (and possibly movie) might be out sooner than we expectecd. Even though before sharing the news and all the details we know let’s put the context back.

In 2017, Call Me By Your Name was treated to Italian director Luca Guadagnino's film adaptation , starring prodigy actor Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer . If, after the boxing of the feature film Oscarized, the director announced to prepare a sequel to his film, the author himself revealed on Twitter, in December 2018, that he would pursue the romance between his characters with a second book: "I'd love to have 'Call Me By Your Name', and I'm actually writing it . " A boon for all those who have been blown by André Aciman and his ability to provide so many emotions through the simple prism of words.

The good news ? We know the title and some details of the novel. According to Vulture , the publishing house Farrar, Straus and Giroux has indicated, via a statement, that it will be a direct result of the first installment. Samuel , the father of Elio , just divorced, would undertake a trip from Florence to Rome during which he makes a meeting about to change his life, while his son, become a classical pianist, will fly to Paris. Oliver , now a teacher in a school in the United States, would think of returning to Europe. Entitled Find Me , this second part will be released on October 29, 2019. We are already looking forward to it.

ELIO’S LOVER

The world of Ali Franco: Exclusive Interview and Presentation

Eastern European ( originally from Ukraine) but based in Portugal, Ali Franco is a unique artist and painter.

"Lover of the erotic themes of the homosexual world, he represents a combination of concepts and taboos and gives us glimpses of bourgeois porn in candy covers, where Harmony novel atmospheres act as a setting for disturbing sexual acts among wrestlers of ancient Greece."

-Tell us a bit more about you and your art.

I was born within an artistic family, my parents have art education and my father always worked in museums and theaters, decorating rooms and the stage.

I loved so much to be in a backstage room, to see the actors preparing for showsand the busy atmosphere. I loved costumes around me and the makeup smell, it was like magic in the air.

Something else that stayed in my mind as a strong memory is the Apollo mask on the wall of my room. I was drawing him very often. Years later I was in love with the movies of Fellini Satyricon and Casanova. I guess all of these things had influence on me.

But I thought there is something I can't find and I want to see it...

I was looking for that something in books, magazines, internet and finally decided to create something by myself: homoerotic illustrations with the atmosphere I love: theater, Greek, French, Italian culture.

-How did you decide to follow and develop that section of art?

My first work pieces were not openly homoerotic actually. But people said “they look like gays, why do you do it? The guys you paint, look too feminine, it's so weird.” I guess I confused people around with my works.

I heard from them “it might be better to do normal things, because nobody needs paintings like yours”.

And I made a big break with my own artworks. I closed up and I was working just for requests, painting mostly portraits, landscapes, book and game illustrations.

But I believe it was a good experience in my life, that gave me new skill level and requirements. As a final point now they love what I create.

-Describe your art in three words.

Three main words are always with me when I'm painting - Passion, Beauty, Love.

-Where do you find inspiration? Books or paintings? Do you organise a set with live models as well?

I can say I'm more illustrator than a painter. I create a composition in my head and later I look for models. Sometimes my friends help me with this, sometimes I use photos… everything can be good in this case.

-How is fashion related to your work?

Talking about fashion, it's funny - as a teenager I wanted to be a fashion designer, to create interesting clothes, but at the same time I always thought - “it will be something out of fashion because it's too weird or complicated.”

I hope in future to use more clothes and hairstyle ideas in my artworks, maybe even to create some alternative or even a surreal world.

I like what is going on with fashion today - looks like we are very close to freedom, people can be creative and feel free to express themselves.

I'm really glad about it!

-Where can someone find your art and actually buy his favourite painting?

Two years ago I started to post my works on Instagram and didn't expected for a lot of followers, if to be honest. So I really appreciate all people who like my works! And I'm glad that people buy my paintings or art prints.

At the moment I have Etsy page for this (https://www.etsy.com/shop/AFstore) and also you can find some of my works in Filippo Ioco Studio and Gallery in Barcelona (http://www.iocostudiogallery.com).

-What are your next plans? Are planning any exhibition soon ?

I have so many plans - first to continue create new illustrations sure.

I hope to publish few books with sketches and color illustrations. Also to take a part in art exhibitions and to make a solo exhibition in two years.
