A new, expansive study on Futurism which explores for the first
time its relationships with other European avant-gardes during 1912
to 1939 Futurism was originally an Italian movement established in
1909 that strived for a radical rejuvenation of culture, not just
in art but in all aspects of life. The concept of a new,
all-encompassing aesthetic found its way to large parts of Europe
and had a great influence on other avant-garde movements, something
which has never before been fully explored. Futurism and Europe:
The Aesthetics of a New World examines for the first time the many
interconnections between Futurism and other European avant-gardes
such as De Stijl, Bauhaus, Esprit Nouveau, and Russian
Constructivism. Featuring a wide range of works, the book spans
multiple mediums including painting, sculpture, architecture,
interior and stage designs, graphic work and fashion as well as a
variety of functional objects from furniture and carpets to design
books, ceramics, and puppets. Covering various avant-gardes from
1912 to 1939, artists featured include Italian futurists, such as
Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Fortunato Depero, Antonio Sant
'Elia and Enrico Prampolini, alongside other European artists Sonia
