Filippo Marinetti was one of the original artists who painted in the futurism style, his intentions were to paint about the new facts of technology, the machine, speed, and dynamic energy. His works of art were intense for his time period, but looking at many of his works they portray many elements of our time. To me it is just unbelievable how someone who would come up with such images that are not too far from how we live in the 21st century. His work could easily adapt to the art world right now.
I admire his work and all other work by those in the futurism movement, but there are ideas in which I don't agree with. Especially when they all agreed with war, believed all art before them should be destroyed and that they hated women. Not really my kind of guys!:rolleyes:
