Huidobro, Torre and Diego exchange some letters that show different pictures of ultraism: Huidobro is crucial for its constitution, but when controversy arises with Reverdy, he breaks with the representatives of this first Spanish avant-garde. Torre believes that is an integrating movement of all new trends and he defends his willingness to go beyond. Finally, Diego discovers new poetry with Ultra, but soon he becomes a creationist and he maintains fidelity to Huidobro. The cross correspondence of these authors provides materials of great interest in order to illuminate these complex relationships and discover new facets of ultraism, when one hundred years have passed since the second and decisive arrival of the Chilean to Spain.
