Specialist Notes

"The large amount of" New York impressions "made up of sketches, free words, newspaper clippings, photographs, souvenirs, etc., already involves Depero on his return from America. The famous book "New York - Film lived" is immediately programmed, which was to be accompanied by two discs with the voice of Depero, but which never came out. " (Maurizio Scudiero).
