Dubuffet states in part `You have not only sent me the small book about Picabia, but also the separate print of your article about Dada in ''Critique'', and you would not believe how much pleasure I have had with the lecture of this article because the cheerful dada wind breath feels good. Also breathing the warmth and the heart, and the intelligence and lucidity, and poetry, not the fake but the authentic.´ EX Francis Picabia (1879-1953) French avant-garde painter and poet. One of the early major figures of the Dada movement.
