Overview

In the early 20th Century, the Futurist movement broke dramatically and violently from Italy’s illustrious artistic past.  Artists including Balla, Boccioni, Severini, and Carra chose provocatively modern subjects and added dynamic movement and vivid colour to fractured Cubist forms. Italy’s fascist regime was surprisingly tolerant of modern art. Throughout the century Italian artists, including de Chirico, Giacometti and Fontana contributed to international modernism.
