Futurism

Futurism was a artistic and social movement that began in Italy in early 20th Century. The themes that the movement used were:
  • Future
  • Speed
  • Technology
  • Voilence
  • Industry
The Futurism movement was an Italian phenomenon even tho there were simmilar movements in counties like Russia and England.

The Futurists practided in almost every part of art including:
  • Painting
  • Sculpture
  • Ceramics
  • Graphic Desgin
  • Industrial Design
  • Interior Design
  • Urban Design
  • Theatre
  • Film
  • Fashion
  • Textiles
  • Literature
  • Music
  • Architecture
  • Gastronomy
Futurism was found by an Italian writer Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, Filippo started the art movement off in his poem "Futurist Manifesto" which he published on 5th February 1909. Futurism was a very political ar movement as it managed to create changed in Italy but also Europe.

The Futurism Art work looks very abstract to me as of the shapes and colours.



Every single of the pieces of work above uses many different colours and many different shapes the shapes are mostly triangles but they also use other shapes.
