Dear Research Diary,

I spent all day yesterday at the Frohring library doing various projects. I started working on the assignment that Professor Gianni gave me which is to outline the main historical events taking place in the late 60’s in Italy. I got a couple of very useful sources, I found an Encyclopedia of Contemporary Italian Culture in the Reference section which would be great to just have around. I wrote a bit on Situationism, born out of French Lettrism and CoBrA, which was a highly politicized art. They formed some experimental research studios in northern Italy and this is essentially where Gruppo 63 came from, which was so in contact with the AP artists.
