拍品資料及來源

"Posters are important not only for themselves but also for their topicality. Their colours acquire new meaning and today the 'images' get new meaning for me as they introduce a really new element in my everyday relation with the street. Colour's emotional mainspring triggers my willingness to lacerate and starts the complex chain of facts that find completion in my work."

Mimmo Rotella cited in a letter to the gallery owner Guido le Noci, 1961, from Pierre Restany, Mimmo Rotella: dal Décollage alla Nuova Immagine, Milan 1963
