Mondadori Store

Thursday, 14 September, Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, will open a new bookstore in Rome in the heart of the residential neighbourhood of Via Salaria 54. To celebrate the occasion, starting at 6 pm, Marcello Veneziani – journalist and author of numerous essays on philosophy and political culture – will be there to meet readers and sign copies of his book “Vico dei miracoli”,’published by Rizzoli.

The new Mondadori Bookstore covers an area of 140 square metres spread over two floors and three storefronts located on the ground floor. The new opening will expand the already extensive Mondadori Store network in the area, making a new hub dedicated to the world of books, culture and entertainment available to the public.

This is the first opening of journalist Giulia Di Martino’s Mondadori Store affiliate, fulfilling a lifelong dream of hers. “For personal reasons, I moved to Rome from Sicily, where I worked for a local TV station. However, this unexpected change in my life has allowed me to focus on the dream I’ve had since I was a child: to have my own bookstore that could become a meeting place for all the inhabitants of the area, especially the many families that populate the neighbourhood, and to stand as a real cultural hub for the area,” said Giulia di Martino.

A team of experienced anthropologists will support the affiliate in providing the best service to customers at the new Mondadori Bookstore. The bookstore is envisioned as an additional service offered to the local community, making it a meeting place for families and schools in the area.

The new Mondadori Bookstore offers a wide selection of titles, approximately 12,000, ranging from the great classics to fiction, not forgetting young readers with the We are Junior format, which includes educational and illustrated games to stimulate the imagination with interesting stories, and the innovative department dedicated to manga and comics, Just Comics. Also expanding the store’s offerings are areas dedicated to stationery, toys, music, Kobo e-readers, gift cards and gift boxes.

The Mondadori Bookstore in Via Salaria 54 in Rome also serves readers online: customers can keep up-to-date through its Facebook and Instagram pages. They will also be able to get in touch with the bookstore through the Mondadoristore.it digital services to check whether a book is available, order it and pick it up in the store or have it delivered to their home, choosing from a catalogue of more than 1 million titles.

In addition to offering readers and users its core offer, books, it organises fun experiences, events and multi-channel services, reaching more than 20 million customers each year.

MONDADORI BOOKSTORE IMA, the new format of contemporary bookstores that favours the Japanese-inspired atmosphere, doubles stores in Piedmont: after the opening in January 2022 of the brand’s flagship store in Turin, inside the Officine S shopping centre, on 16 June a new store will officially open in Gravellona Toce, at the Le Isole shopping centre.

Built on an area of about 200 square metres on a single level, the bookstore aims to be a space where culture and respect for nature blend harmoniously to offer visitors a totally new cultural and shopping experience that is at the same time food and rest for the mind. The Japanese philosophy of Ma, where the brand takes its name, is a space where the soul finds nourishment and shelter from the frenzy of everyday life.

The lights and furnishings, which are used for the proposed relaxation exercises, are made of environmentally-friendly materials: marine poplar, recycled iron and of course wood in the form of curved furniture like tree trunks, bonsai and sansevieria throughout the store. There’s also a corner for reading and relaxation, multimedia terminals and other interactive tools to enhance the possibilities of enjoying the space and choosing products from more than 33 thousand volumes on the shelf from fiction to non-fiction, from classics to a range of genres, comics, CDs, DVDs, games, stationery, and gadgets offered, as well as the support and advice of the staff of young and experienced booksellers.

The space will also host literary and musical events, debates, conferences, book signings and workshops for young and old and a gallery of art exhibitions and photography by local and national artists.

“We’re proud of this second opening in Piedmont, the seventh in Italy in just over a year”, said Nello Nunziata, CEO for Retail Development. “This wonderful location amidst lakes and mountains”, adds Nunziata, “fully embodies the spirit of harmony, relaxation and contact with nature that we bring with our innovative project in partnership with Mondadori Retail”. “In addition”, he concludes, “the proximity to the Swiss border will be a source of enrichment and cultural exchange to make the editorial offer and events that we will propose even more varied and able to respond to the different needs of the readers who will visit us”.

The multi-platinum band THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS has released their new single “STUCK” via Concord Records (listen here). This is the first single from the new album “It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day”, due out this September. A dynamic song that lays the foundations for the new musical era of the brothers Jared and Shannon Leto, five years after the release of their last recording project.

The single is accompanied by an extraordinary music video directed by Jared Leto himself, a true celebration of human form, design, high fashion, art and dance.
Speaking about the video, Jared Leto said: “Thanks to my incredibly creative mother, my brother and I were instilled with a love for art and photography from a very young age. The video for STUCK, our first new song in five years, is a love letter to some of my favourite photographers. Artists who made a very deep impact on me like Richard Avedon, Irving Penn, Robert Mapplethorpe, Diane Arbus, Herb Ritts and more. Artists whose work changed the way I saw things and showed me new possibilities at every turn.
The video for STUCK is very much a companion piece and a continuation of a journey started with “Up In The Air”, a celebration of art, design, fashion, and the remarkable people who bring them to life. It is a love letter to the power of movement and connection, a testament to the awe-inspiring potential of people who don’t necessarily fit so neatly in – but make the world so much more fascinating. I would like to express my immense gratitude to everyone involved. From the incredibly talented artists and designers to the behind-the-scenes team. All who worked so hard to make it all possible. Your contributions have made this experience an absolutely unforgettable adventure and helped to capture and celebrate the essence of what makes us all unique and exceptional.”

The attention to high fashion is reflected in the wonderful looks of the FW23 and innovative designer clothes like Gucci, Ann Demeulemeester, Balmain, Maison Margiela, Raf Simons, Rick Owens, and Jean Paul Gaultier, among others.
Full of energy, the video also stars an incredibly unique cast that interprets the song with movement, metaphors and action. 

The new single and video come just days after Jared’s participation in the “biggest fashion night”, his fifth appearance at the Met Gala.
Jared attended the themed night “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty” paying tribute to the iconic designer who died a few years ago wearing a fun costume on the red carpet depicting Karl’s beloved cat (Choupette). After grabbing everyone’s attention, he then showed off a second Lagerfeld look.

In “Stuck” the ethereal voice and guitar of the charismatic frontman Jared Leto quickly explodes into grittier and more aggressive bass, with sounds that perfectly capture the chaotic on-again, off-again relationship the song expresses.
“I wrote it from the perspective of a narrator who simply can’t help himself from plunging headfirst into what will likely be a doomed romance,” Jared says of the song (“The more I drift, the closer I get to you / She’s a ghost, and the truth it’s impossible / But I love her lies”. “It’s about knowing you need to get out but simply being unable to, whether that’s from fear or comfort or confusion, hence being ‘Stuck.’”

THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS’ sixth studio album, “IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD BUT IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY”, will be released in September.
Exactly five years after the release of their chart-topping album “America”, the band is releasing new music like never before.
Throughout their prolific career, THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS have continually redefined their creative boundaries to push in new directions and evolve. Now, the new goal is to be simple and concise – no songs longer than three and a half minutes – placing a lot of emphasis on Jared’s expressive vocals.

In late May, THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS will take to the main stage of BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend and in August the band will perform for the third time on stage at the Lollapalooza Festival, where they haven’t performed since 2006. Continuing in the wake of their live shows, THIRTY SECONDS TO MARS will also perform at the When We Were Young Festival in Las Vegas in October, which has already sold out.
More dates will be announced soon.

Jared and Shannon Leto will meet the public in the second half of September in a special online event organised in collaboration with Mondadori Store, the largest network of bookstores in Italy, and Virgin Radio, which has always supported the band and of which Jared Leto is a Rock Ambassador: by pre-ordering THE album “IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD BUT IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY” on CD or vinyl, you’ll be able to participate in an unforgettable chat on Zoom with the band, moderated by a Virgin Radio talent, where some lucky fans will also be able to participate directly. You’ll be able to pre-order the new album on mondadoristore.it until the day of release.
All the information on how to participate is on mondadoristore.it. and on virginradio.it.

From Saturday May 6, the MONDADORI BOOKSTORE I MA chain, a new contemporary and environmentally-friendly concept inspired by Japan, will also open in Grosseto, at the Aurelia Antica Shopping Center.

The curvy, tree-shaped, wooden and marine poplar furniture, along with the recycled iron furnishings, sanseveria and bonsai plants decorating the store’s 250 square-meter surface characterise the new bookstore of this innovative project of the Italian publishing context.

The formula, already successfully tested in Turin, Cagliari, Catania, Udine and Salerno, combines culture and respect for the environment, to simultaneously create an environmentally-friendly and multimedia location where to nourish and regenerate the mind according to the Japanese MA philosophy from which it takes its name.

“Surrounded” by books, visitors will be able to explore the over 45 thousand titles available or browse for information on the multimedia totems and seek the advice of expert booksellers while enjoying an immersive and relaxing experience.

Moreover, a large coworking section, which can be transformed into an event area whenever needed, is also available to guests for literary and musical encounters, book signings and labs for adults and children. A special area will also be dedicated to children with educational resources, games and furnishings thought around their needs and designed to stimulate their creativity.

And again: a snack bar, the MACafé, developed in partnership with NUAN, will allow visitors to taste and savour fine blends of teas, herbal infusions, coffees or local wines; a corner will also be dedicated to music with a wide selection of records and CDs, and a gallery will be set up to host the works and photographic perspectives of local and national artists, starting with the Sensitivity collection, Mattia Valdes’ solo exhibition especially prepared for May 6’s inauguration.

“Having a bookstore in the shopping centre was one of 2023’s main goals – states Stefania Ricci, owner of the Aurelia Antica Shopping Centre. An innovative and relaxing environment will further make one’s experience in the gallery more pleasant. The MONDADORI BOOKSTORE | MA’s style – she continues – is perfectly in line with Aurelia Antica’s mission, that of being a meeting place for all family members. This new space enhances the offer with a truly innovative offer: one can relax while reading a good book or participate in meetings and events, while children can discover the world of books in a space specifically designed around them.”

“The warmth expressed by the city and centre fills us with joy” comments Giuseppe Messina, Managing Director of the MA book lifestyle group. “Many people wrote asking about the opening date and we also received several partnership requests: a tangible sign of welcome and integration which makes us proud of this project. Thanks to the inauguration of this new store in Grosseto, the sixth over the last few months – continues Messina -, we will pursue our mission of creating growth and employment in this sector in partnership with Mondadori Retail. We believe culture has the power of driving local development – he concludes – and hope to gradually and increasingly become a place of aggregation created around the communities we will cross through our innovative offer and the feedback we’ll receive from readers.”
