(At a certain moment the musician said: ‘Red Caproni’!) (He had noticed that I like red a lot. He said that he likes blue).

Monday 25 October 1948, Giorgio Caproni

At the beginning there is always red. Then a route is created. One colour leads to another. One colour takes me to another colour and so on. It becomes more distant, step by step, like on a walk. Then, at a certain point along the way, I turn back and start to steer the palette and slowly return towards the initial colour. I continue by turning back. I return to the red; the starting point: a return journey.
