"Futurism was the state of the Fascist regime" - this is the view
one encounters in most books written on Futurist art and
literature. Whilst there can be no doubt about Futurist involvement
with the founding of the fascist movement, little is known about
the internal relationship between Futurists and Fascists in the
years 1918-22, nor about the reasons for the Futurists' departure
from the Fascist movement in 1920, or about Futurist opposition to
(and even armed struggle against) the Fascist regime after 1924.
Whilst the public documents testifying to Futurist support of
Mussolini are well known, little has been written about Futurist
anti-fascism camouflaged as official adherence to the regime. This
study, based primarily on unknown or unpublished documents
discovered in state archives and private collections, presents a
new andfar more complex picture of the relationship of the two
movements than has previously been shown by critics and historians.
