Catalogue Note
"Un giorno ho messo il mio nome in ordine alfabetico. Mi sono reso conto che, ad esempio, alcune strutture fondamentali, gigantesche della società verrebbero a crollare se mancassero alcuni piccoli elementi, come l'ordine alfabetico. (...) Vi era un doppio senso in questo mio lavoro: un rimettere le cose a capo e ricominciare, e dopo lavorarci di nuovo sopra."
(A. Boetti cit. in AA.VV. Alighiero Boetti. Mettere al mondo il mondo, Francoforte 1998, pag. 51)
