The illustrations are reproductions of written fragments of collages that have a name of an Italian poet written over the collaged fragments. These are portraits of the poets in visual poetic terms but are simpler in construction than Caruso's "Ritratto Degli Uomini Illustri" that is also held by the Sackner Archive. This book was published in September 2002 and Caruso died later tha year. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

This catalogue was in the collection of Jan van der Marck, director of the MOCA and curator of the exhibition. He wrote in the introduction, "What characterizes the majority of works in this exhibition is their complex permutation of words and images. The resulting visual language tends towards poetic rather than communicative functions." Van der Marck also wrote the biographies of the artists. The Sackner Archive also holds the archive for the limited edition box with contributions from the artists that was assembled for this exhibition. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
