Enrico Baj (31 October 1924 – 16 June 2003) was an Italian artist and writer on art. Many of his works show an obsession with nuclear war. He created prints, and sculptures but especially collage. He was close to the surrealist and dada movements, and was later associated with CoBrA. As an author, he has been described as a leading promoter of the avant-garde. He worked with Umberto Eco among other collaborators. He had a long interest in the pseudo-philosophy 'pataphysics. He studied at the Milan University law faculty and the Brera Academy of Art. In 1951 he founded the arte nucleare movement with Sergio Dangelo, which unlike abstract art was overtly political. Baj himself was aligned with the anarchist movement. His most well-known pieces are probably the series of "Generals": absurd characters made from found objects such as belts or medals.
Gualtieri di San Lazzaro (Giuseppe Papa, 1904-1974), editor, collector, and critic, gave life to a major magazine of contemporary art: he founded and directed the magazine XXe Siècle , published in Paris since 1938, dedicating each issue to a different theme of contemporary art and illustrating it with original graphics by masters such as Arp, Henri Laurens, Miró, Klee, Moore, Marino Marini, Magnelli, Picasso etc.

Enrico Baj
Enrico Baj, born in Milan on October 31, 1924 and died in Vergiate on June 16, 2003, was an Italian painter, libertarian anarcho-pataphysician. In 1950, with the painter Sergio Dangelo, he founded the Nuclear Movement (or Movimento Arte Nucleare), considered the Italian equivalent of the CoBrA movement. In 1953, he approached the painter Asger Jorn with the aim of founding the International Movement for an imaginist Bauhaus and organized the International Ceramic Meetings of Albisola, in which the painters Matta and Roland Giguère took part. From 1955, he composed his paintings with the most heterogeneous elements such as pieces of glass, skeins of wool, mattress canvas, watch dials. That same year, with the writer Édouard Jaguer, he created the Italian magazine Il gesto. After meeting Mesens in London, Marcel Duchamp and Arturo Schwarz in New York, he met André Breton in Paris in 1962. From 1965, he began a series of collages representing ladies: Dame Ninette de Valois, 1974 and Generals in ceremonial costumes overloaded with decorations: Lieutenant John Talbot, First Earl of Shrewsbury.
