Step into the vibrant world of Futurism, a revolutionary art movement born in early 20th century Italy. Pioneers like Umberto Boccioni, with his groundbreaking work "Materia" (1912), ignited the flame. The Sackville Gallery in London showcased the movement's works in 1912, inspiring British artists like H.M. Bateman. The Futurist exhibition in The Sketch magazine further fueled intrigue. Boccioni's "Unique Forms Continuity in Space" (1913), a cast from 1950, embodies the movement's rejection of traditional perspective. Meanwhile, Vladimir Mayakovsky, David Burlyuk, and Andrei Shemshurin, prominent figures in the Russian Futurist scene, embraced the avant-garde spirit. The movement's influence extended beyond Europe, reaching as far as Asmara, Eritrea, where an old petrol station served as a muse for the Futurists' raw, expressive art. Join us as we explore the dynamic and thought-provoking world of Futurism, where art and innovation collide.
