Russian Futurism

Russian Futurism was an artistic and literary movement that emerged in Russia in the early 20th century, around 1910-1920. It celebrated modernity and envisioned a break from the past, embracing technology, speed, and urban life. Artists and writers sought to express revolutionary ideas through bold, avant-garde styles, often using unconventional language and imagery. Key figures included poets like Velimir Khlebnikov and artists like Kazimir Malevich. The movement aimed to create a new culture that reflected the dynamic changes in society, ultimately influencing the development of modern art and literature in Russia and beyond.
