= The second manifesto of the Movimento Arte Nucleare, signed (in letterpress) by i.a. Armand, Enrico Baj, Hundertwasser, Yves Klein, Piero Manzoni, Pierre Restany and Saura. "(...) De Stijl is dead and buried, and it is now up to its opposite - ANTISTYLE - to break down the last remaining barriers of cliché-ridden convention that official stupidity still dares to oppose against this liberation - that has finally discovered its verbal definition - of art. Once upon a time impressionism helped painting get rid of conventional subject-matter; cubism and futurism later got rid of the need for the realistic reproduction of objects; and abstraction finally removed the last traces of representational illusion. A new - and final - link today completes this chain: we, nuclear painters, denounce, in order to destroy, the final convention, STYLE. The last stylistic works that we recognise are the "monochromes" of Yves Klein (1956-1957) (...)." SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE VI.
