In the spring of 1976 a group of students - aged between 20 and 25 years, all in various political occupations - formed the collective l'Asino Volante, to draw attention to the degradation of the area and the problem of forced abandonment of the historic center by the resident population. They aimed to arouse the inhabitants' participation in a rehabilitation project. To this end they embarked on the decoration, with large murals, of some abandoned buildings in Via di Tor di Nona - of which the demolition was planned - and of the opposite wall, on the other side of the road. Among others, Paolo Ramundo, now architect and farmer, Carlo Zaccagnini, architect, son of the secretary of the DC, Giuseppe Roma, currently director of Censis, Lorenzo Mammì, musician, Oscar's son, Isabella Rossellini, Roberto Federici, artist, Paolo Sgabello, journalist, Antonio Rava, engineer, Jasmin Ergas, lawyer today in New York.
