I Manifesti Del Futurismo

F. T. Marinetti

1909

Art

This is the bomb thrown into European culture. Published in 1909 across Italian and French newspapers, Marinetti's founding manifesto of Futurism declared war on museums, libraries, and everything soft and past-obsessed. The prose screams. It celebrates the beauty of a racing car, the glory of speed, the intoxication of violence. A speeding car is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace. Marinetti and his fellow Futurists rejected sentiment, rejected tradition, rejected the stagnant waters of the past, and instead championed machinery, youth, war, and the ecstatic chaos of modern life. These manifestos aren't mere historical curiosities; they represent the opening shot of a century of avant-garde movements, the template that would influence everything from Dada to Pop to punk. Whether you find them exhilarating or disturbing, they fundamentally reshaped art's relationship with time, technology, and aggression. Essential for anyone who wants to understand how radical art becomes radical politics.

“Our poetry is courage, audacity and revolt.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“La poesia deve essere concepita come un violento assalto contro le forze ignote, per ridurle a prostrarsi davanti all’uomo.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“Noi vogliamo preparare la nascita di una Venezia industriale e militare che possa dominare il mare Adriatico, gran lago Italiano.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“Ritti sulla cima del mondo, noi scagliamo, una volta ancora, la nostra sfida alle stelle!””

— F. T. Marinetti

“La matière n’est ni triste ni joyeuse. Elle a pour essence le courage, la volonté et la force absolue. Elle appartient toute entière au poète divinateur qui saura se délivrer de la syntaxe traditionnelle, lourde, étroite, attachée au sol, sans bras et sans ailes parce qu’elle est seulement intelligente. Seul le poète asyntaxique et aux mots déliés pourra pénétrer l’essence de la matière et détruire la sourde hostilité qui la sépare de nous.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“Nous voulons chanter l’amour du danger, l’habitude de l’énergie et de la témérité.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“Le génie a des rafales impétueuses et des torrents boueux. Il impose parfois des lenteurs analytiques et explicatives. On ne peut guère rénover sa sensibilité d’un seul coup. Les cellules mortes sont mêlées aux vivantes. L’art est un besoin de se détruire et de s’éparpiller, grand arrosoir d’héroïsme inondant le monde. Les microbes, ne l’oubliez pas, sont nécessaires au sang, aussi bien qu’à l’Art, ce prolongement de la forêt de nos veines, qui se déploie hors du corps dans l’infini de l’espace et du temps.””

— F. T. Marinetti

“Noi vogliamo glorificare la guerra”

— F. T. Marinetti

“La letteratura esaltò fino ad oggi l’immobilità pensosa, l’estasi e il sonno. Noi vogliamo esaltare il movimento aggressivo, l’insonnia febbrile, il passo di corsa, il salto mortale, lo schiaffo ed il pugno.””

— F. T. Marinetti
