This term alludes to a new artistic genre based on the reuse of words and images taken from mass magazines, advertisements and comics. The Gruppo 70 arose from these activities in 1963 in Florence. Pignotti and Eugenio Miccini were the founders later joined by Luciano Ori, Michele Perfetti, Lucia Marcucci, Ketty La Rocca, Giuseppe Chiari and others.
