I manifesti del futurismo collects the founding declarations of Italian Futurism, the avant-garde movement launched by F. T. Marinetti in 1909. These manifestos proclaim a violent break with the art of the past and celebrate speed, the machine, the modern city, and dynamism in painting, sculpture, music, and literature. The volume gathers the key programmatic texts that defined the movement.
Please note that this work is in Italian. As primary documents of one of the most disruptive movements of twentieth-century art, these manifestos remain essential reading for the study of modernism and the European avant-garde. This free EPUB download is cleanly formatted for any e-reader.
