We propose an emblematic work with great visual impact by Eugenio Miccini, a central figure in Italian visual poetry and one of the founders of the '63 Group.

This piece perfectly captures the essence of Visual Poetry: the dynamic union between graphic sign and meaning.

Brief Biography
Born in Florence in 1921, Eugenio Miccini is considered one of the founders of Visual Poetry and verbal-visual experimentation in Italy. His artistic research, initiated in the 1960s, is characterized by the fusion of poetic language and visual art, often through the use of plastic and everyday materials.
He was among the founding members of the '63 Group, the important Italian neo-avant-garde movement, and of the 70 Group, contributing significantly to the international dissemination of Visual Poetry as a critical and conceptual art form. His works are exhibited in the collections of the world's most important museums.
