Futurist Manifesto

The Futurist Manifesto, written by Italian poet Tommaso Marinetti in 1909, advocates for a radical change in art, culture, and society. It celebrates modernity, technology, and speed while rejecting the past, especially traditional artistic forms. The manifesto emphasizes themes like dynamic motion, energy, and the beauty of machinery, reflecting the rapidly changing world of the early 20th century. Futurism sought to inspire a new, youthful perspective, encouraging artists to embrace innovation and break away from historical constraints, ultimately aiming to transform both art and the cultural landscape.
