Catalogue Note
Queste opere dal carattere lapidario rimangono esteticamente la parte calda che non spicca nelle bacheliti. Alla freddezza mentale delle bacheliti contrappongono la rindondanza letteraria dei feltri come i titoli stessi dimostrano: "Copia dal vero", "Ritratto di esploratore", "Ritratto di attore", "Paesaggio", "Ritratto di eroe", etc.

These works characterized by a lapidary quality, aesthetically remain the warm aspect that one does not see in the works made in bakelite. To the mental coldness of bakelite, they contrast the literary redundancy of the works in felt as clearly demonstrated by the titles: “Copy from the original”, “Portrait of an explorer”, Portrait of an actor”, “Landscape”, Portrait of a hero”, etc.
