Note du spécialiste

'I am interested in primary matters, such as the alphabet, the map, the newspaper, among other things owing to the spring which thus tautens between order and disorder. There is an exact order innate in each and every thing, even if it manifests in a disorderly manner.' Alighiero Boetti (L. Rolf, Alighiero Boetti: mettere al mondo il mondo, Cantz, 1998, p. 29.)
