Background
In the same period of this manuscript, Afro has a growing international success: he is invited to II. Documenta in Kassel, and was the winner of the prize in Pittsburgh and the prize for Italy at the Solomon R. Guggenheim in New York. The Guggenheim bought his painting "Night Flight"(1957). In 1961 J. J. Sweeney, the curator of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, dedicated a splendid monograph to him.
Although he was having an international success, Afro never forgot his patron of art, the Countess Anna Laetitia Pecci Blunt, best-known as "Mimì", that founded La Cometa Gallery in Rome in 1935, together with the Italian poet Libero de Libero, and the support of Leonardo Sinisgalli and Corrado Cagli, an intimate Afro's friend.
In the early seventies Afro began to suffer of health problems. He died in 1976. The following year, Cesare Brandi published a monograph concerning his production. In 1978 the National Gallery of Modern Art in Rome gave a homage to him by dedicating a large retrospective. In 1992 the complete work was exhibited at Palazzo Reale in Milan. The Catalog Raisonné of Afro's work was presented in November 1997 at the American Academy in Rome, and in 1998 at the Guggenheim Foundation in Venice.
