When, in August 1969, Broutin realizes these pages in Indian ink on rough paper with the attention of a beginner than twenty-one years, he shows the product of his early research: "I attended Lettrists artists since 1968 and I tried to capture the most recent contributions before imposing my own style. "There are writings recalling the Egyptian demotic - Broutin studied Egyptian epigraphy - the set of lines polyautomatiques, imaginative, and, in terms of rhythm, a taste for eccentricity, even for the vacuum. The linearity of the following year will move with metecisations It is young, before developing, in 1973, with a large project still continued today, Desire and externite paradise. Take note of this notebook c ' has become aware of the defining moments in the choice of an aesthetic. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
