Scope and Contents

This exhibition was curated by Luiggi Ballerini who organized it into two sections:1912 to 1940 and 1941 to 1972. Jan van der Marck contributed a lively and scholarly description of the work of Gianfranco Bauchello.The Sackner Archive holds a layered box by Baruchello which alludes to the science mentioned in the essay. Mary Ellen Solt writes about Carlo Belloli's work. The catalogue contains an anthology of essays relating to works in the exhibition; these include texts by F.T. Marinetti, Anna and Martino Oberto, Ugo Carrega, Miccini, and Perfetti. These Italian visual poets are also accomplished critics of the visual poetic scene. Fortunato Depero's books, "Compari 1931" and "Depero Futurista," and, Marinetti's Zang Tumb Tuuum," and D'Albissola's "L'Anguria Lirica," are held by the Sackner Archive among others included in this exhibition. The the breadth of material presented in this genre was outstanding. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
