The concept of poetry as image has its roots in antiquity and finds
the first principal indications in Mallarmé
and, above all, in the Futurists.
But the real appearance, and propagation, is attributed to the
neoavantgard of the sixties.
>From that moment on, poetry as image is recognized as one of the most
vivacious and stimulating explorations in artistic expression.
It is recognized by experts all over the world, even though the most
prolific activity is found in Italy.
To explain poetry as image, just look at it's name: there's a clear
desire for the word to be transformed into an image rather than be
separated by esthetic types, they join and marry in a single form of
expression in which they interrract depending on the relationships and
values determined by each artist.
The categories of poetry as image are multilevel and it's difficult if
not impossible to classify them all.
Poetry as image has been widely recognized in the world of art but not
in the marketplace. Today poetry as image enjoys a new discovery and
a new value, not only towards its exponents which are on the increase
but also on the part of the vendors.
