The Futurism movement was born in Italy in the early 20th century, with a focus on breaking free from the past.

Filippo Tommaso Marinetti's Futurist Manifesto sparked the movement's transformation of Italian culture in 1909.

Marinetti's ideas called for the glorification of progress, industry, and mechanization, and the removal of old ideas and institutions.

Futurist artists like Umberto Boccioni, Giacomo Balla, and Gino Severini sought to create modern and figurative art that explored the properties of space and movement.

Marinetti's manifesto called for the destruction of museums, libraries, and academies, and the glorification of war and militarism.
