Catalogue Note
“Strappare manifesti dai muri è la sola compensazione, l’unico modo di protestare contro una società che ha perduto il gusto del cambiamento e delle trasformazioni favolose” Mimmo Rotella "Tearing posters off walls is the only compensation, the only way to protest against a society that has lost the thirst for change and fantastical transformations"
