Fed up with the closed quarters, Greco’s group decided to move to Plaza San Martín, to the rhythm of the San Lorenzo March: the dancer Gades rehearsed a fandanguillo at the foot of the monument, while Greco played around with some paints over a white canvas. At this moment, in an augur pose, he explained to the public what vivo-dito meant. ‘It is what can be pointed out with a finger, what can be shown, what takes place’”.

He later traveled to New York, before the end of the year. As it seems, in this occasion he met with Marcel Duchamp. In this opportunity he also performed an “action” known as the Vivo Dito Raffle at Central Station. Christo remembered the event at an interview held in Barcelona in 1991:

“Yes, it was sort of a raffle...He placed a few art pieces inside some lockers, eighty or so. He sold the keys of the lockers and when you opened them, you found something. But not everyone found a piece of art. I remember that the keys had been sold at the Chelsea Hotel, which is not too far from Central Station... I remember that Alan Kaprow was there, Robert Brown was there as well...”.
