It was 20th February 1909 when the \u2018Futuristic Manifesto\u2019 was published on the front page of Le Figaro. \u2018Le Figaro\u2019 was the most circulated newspaper in France of that time. The \u2018Futuristic Manifesto\u2019 was the masterwork by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti. It led to the beginning of the Italian movement, \u2018the Futuristic movement\u2019. It focused on inculcating modern ideas in newcomers via communicating various ideas. Many artists wanted to change their artwork into a modern and figurative piece. It included artists like Umberto Boccioni, Giacomo Balla, and Carlo Carra etc. All of them got space and place because of Filippo Tommaso Marinetti. In next few years, this movement was spread throughout the country. The specialty of this art movement was that it was not at all confined to paintings only.

At that time, when art was prepared keeping in view only eyesight, the futuristic movement took place in order to make sensational creations which should reach not only eyes but also noise, heat, and mind. Many modern art movements were immediately recognized as distinctive ones like Impressionism and Pointillism. The futuristic movement didn\u2019t get any such identification early. It was in the year 1911 the Futuristic style got distinctively emerged. It was only because of Cubist\u2018s initiative and influential measures. It included Symbolism and Divisionism as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many times, the movement took steps in order to awestruck people. It was connected to art from grass root level but it also had connections and networks in politics. It was considered that this movement has been started to bring revolution in art history but its primary aim was to shock people. To bring revolution in the history of art was its secondary aim.<\/span><\/p>\n

The artists involved in the movement loved to be called the Futurist painters. They started engaging more in this movement and they took initiatives to bring more meaning to their artworks. In the very beginning, the movement used the concept of Divisionism. This artwork is known for having a presence of dots and strips. All of them were made up of pure colors only. Later the movement obtained the aid from Cubist painters. This incident took place in 1911. Then the future artists started taking help from cubists painters. They analyzed and coordinated together and tried to bring out something fresh and impressive. They named it as \u2018The force lines\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though the artists were very much influenced, their artworks started showing the techniques of Cubists. But none of them were similar as that of Picasso and Braque. The movement was going well but it received speed with the Cubists static analytical works. Everyone was grateful for such drastic development. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Futuristic movement is considered as one of the most important Italian avant-garde art movement. It successfully took place in the 20th century. Though this movement took place because of traditional desires, it received advanced technology and modernization soon. Later, new members tried to destroy the old cultural forms. Their reason was that they wanted only modern beauty to retain in the movement and thus they wanted to damage the traditional art form. They wanted to transform. The Italian movement was then following post-impressionism but the artists led to bring the change in this revolutionary movement. The artists were so happy that they celebrated First World War.<\/span><\/p>\n

Severini is one of the typical art forms of the movement. It was present in Divisionism. It had stippled dots and stripes broken into several light colors. Another work \u2018Pointillist\u2019 was also given much respect. It was the creation of Georges Seurat. In 1911, the paintings by futurist artists were exhibited for the first time. This exhibition was titled as \u2018for people who want to introduce something new in the art culture. The paintings were fabulous. They had threadlike brushstrokes which featured highly expressive colors.<\/span><\/p>\n
