The exhibition pays tribute to the heyday of futurism, showing paintings, sculptures, graphic and industrial designs, photographs, manuscripts, books and magazines, among others. It offers an expansive landscape of futurists' experiments in almost all forms of expression, including visual arts, performance art, architecture and even food.
The beginning of futurism was marked by the publication of the Futurism Manifesto in 1909, written by the poet Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, on the front page of Le Figaro, then the largest newspaper in France. It grew into an all-encompassing movement, influencing cultural, artistic and social values.
