Also in 1979 leaves the volume of Vincent Ursini and Antonio Palumbo "twentieth century: profile of contemporary authors" published by Internaz. Ursini publishing.
Palumbo writes:
How born poets, painters born and logically the one with the word, the other with colors, to give objective reality that you need, then, to make it more subjective, more open. Valerio Betta, whose work is linked to the last Impressionist, use the color hands full, but never falls into monotonous. Interpret the landscape as a poet would with the words: colors that give the impression of a sunset soffuso light, the light that is even more beautiful than the sun.
