問題詳情

7~10 為題組       Futurism, a movement in early-20th-century Italian painting and sculpture, was initiated by the literary manifesto of FilippoTommaso Marinetti, published in the French newspaper Le Figaro in February 1909. Marinetti extolled the dynamic energy of themodern machine, declared that classical art was less beautiful than the automobile, and proposed that art should celebrate the violenceof speed and war. He simultaneously decriedconventional artistic taste and its preference for the achievements of the Italian pastover recent innovations of technology. In the following year a group of young painters led by Umberto Boccioni produced a technicalmanifesto that applied Marinetti’s ideas to painting. Boccioni sought to represent the sensations of movement and used the worddynamism to describe the relationship between a moving object and its surroundings, as when a vehicle, speeding along a street, setsup vibrations that shake surrounding buildings.       In order to represent the movement of machines and human figures, the futurists resorted to the techniques of French Cubism,which used fragmented images consisting of intersecting planes to impart a sense of motion to their work. The celebrated NudeDescending a Staircase of Marcel Duchamp reveals the shared characteristics of the two movements. Through a series of similarforms distributed in jerky sequence across the canvas, Duchamp finds a concrete equivalent for the idea of descent. Like Duchamp,the futurists moved toward abstraction, striving to represent the noises of a construction site.      In a second manifesto of 1912, Boccioni applied futurist doctrine to the three-dimensional medium of sculpture, suggesting thata work of art might be set in motion by a motor and that sculpture might incorporate ready-made objects of common use. His ideas,which he did not live to put into practice, were later brought to fruition by kinetic art, and in the collage and assemblage of Picassoand Duchamp.
