Abstract

For many years now, the Bolognese Gian Paolo Roffi has added the collecting to his artistic and poetic activity, relying on the knowledge gained over forty years of participation in the field of visual poetry. The author has constituted a collection of about one hundred and forty pieces of small format, titled Fuoripagina, to underline the attempt to escape from the conventions of the printed page that characterizes the individual works. Starting from the collecting criteria adopted by Roffi, in the present text a partial critical path is traced which intends to highlight ways and strategies of reinvention of the printed page typical of the verbo-visual searches of the second half of the Twentieth Century.
