Madonna is recovering at home after breaking several bones in a horse riding accident on her country estate on Tuesday. The singer suffered a broken hand, a broken collar bone and three cracked ribs after falling from a horse she had never ridden before, in the grounds of her Ashcombe House estate on England's Wiltshire-Devon border. Madonna - who has only been riding for a few months - was celebrating her 47th birthday with her husband and children when the incident happened. After being discharged from hospital in Salisbury late on Tuesday evening, she is now recuperating at home. The accident is anticipated to delay her forthcoming dance album Confessions On A Dancefloor - which was due to be released in November. Her US spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg confirms, "She's walking and talking. I don't know if she's going to be hanging from a disco ball anytime soon."

Whether we want to admit it or not, even now, in year 2012, there are still big gender biases in some fields of life. While it's generally understandable that men should do more heavy lifting than women and knitting fits a bit better for the women (even though I am aware even here there are many people who want to disagree), art is one of those things where our gender really should not play any significant role at all. And within the past decade things have started to change even on this front and even on the more conservative arenas such as Bukowskis - the top Nordic auction house.
