# Arte Povera carries the structure. Nouveau Réalisme appear as accents, each further back than the last.
# Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work.

An original image that takes its structure from Arte Povera (Style, 1967–1970s) and its accent from Nouveau Réalisme (Style, 1960–1970). Structural cues: Non-precious materials; Change and decay; Nature against industry; Bare assembly. Accent cues, used sparingly: Layers of posters torn back; Accumulations of identical objects; Compressed industrial products; Material chosen rather than worked. Composition: Set the work on the floor and refuse the plinth and the spotlight.. Type and lettering: Let the title be a list of the materials, with no metaphor added.. Let one material quality come from the second style: Mass identical real objects, or paste and tear paper so the lower printings show. Mood: Rebellion, Calm, Intimacy, Technology, Exhilaration. Color: build on #d8d0bd, #83755f, #312e28 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Arte Povera: Do not reduce this to the mood of aged materials, and keep its critique of value, time, labor and institution. Over conditioning the display turns the work into an unchanging specimen.
# - Nouveau Réalisme: Simulating the torn poster with a distress filter: the movement's entire claim is that the material was taken and not made, and a synthetic tear reverses it.
