Adriano Spatola (1941–1988) was one of the most important poets of the Italian neo-avant-garde. And yet, his poetic oeuvre has remained in only small and often out-of-print editions both in Italy and abroad, the result of his (as critic Beppe Cavatorta notes) “uncompromising belief in his own poetic project and of being a true ‘renaissance poet,’ one extremely difficult to label: a visual poet, a sound poet, a concrete poet, a linear poet, editor of innovative magazines, a refined critic and translator, organizer of historical poetry happenings… and founder of his ‘republics of poetry.’”
