Futurism was an early 20th century Italian social and artistic movement. It was largely confined to Italy, although parallel movements did appear in England, Russia and elsewhere. Those of the Futurist movement experimented in every medium of art, from the traditional painting, sculpture and ceramics to literature, architecture and theater, even extending to gastronomy. In practice, much of their work was influenced by Cubism, and has been described as being of "plastic dynamism".

<br>Futurism was founded by Italian writer Filippo Tommaso Marinetti. It was launched in his <em>Futurist Manifesto</em>, which he published orginally on 5 February 1909. Additonally, it was reprinted by French Newspaper <em>Le Figaro</em> on 20th February. Marinetti was soon joined by the painters Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carrà, Giacomo Balla, Gino Severini and the composer Luigi Russolo. As suggested by the name of the movement, Marinetti expressed a passitionate distaste for everything old, particularly artistic (and political) tradition. The Futurists were fascinated with new visual technology, such as chronophotography, which was an early predecessor to animation and cinema, allowing an object to be shown across a sequence of frames. This technique, and other new developments, encouraged the Futurists to attempt to evoke a sensation of movement in their artwork. Those of the movement admired anything that represented the technological advancement of humanity, and its triumph over nature, such as the automobile, aeroplane and industrial urban city. The Futurists struggled to represent the 'modern experience', and not only through to the visual medium. At their best, Futurist paintings and other artwork evoke the sensations of a metropolis' noise and heat. They were also passionate nationalists. Publishing manifestos such as the one orginally published by Marinetti became a feature of the movement, and under his guidance they wrote on varied subjects, from cooking to religion. Unlike many other modern art movements, a distinct Futurist artistic style was not developed until 1911, at Cubist influence.

<br>Many Italian Futurists supported Fascism in an attempt to support the modernisation of Italy, which was divided into the industrial North and rural South. After Fascism's triumph in Italy in 1922, the Futurists gained official acceptance in Italy, and the opportunity to carry out important works, especially in architecture. However, this meant that after Fascism's fall in the Second World War, many Futurists had career difficulties due to this association with a defeated regime.

<br>Futurism's leaves a legacy of its influence on other movemements. Futurism affected the development of many other 20th century movements, such as Dadaism and Surrealism. It additionally influenced the modern form of Science Fiction, Cyberpunk. A revival of sorts of the Futurist movement began in 1988 with the creation of the Neo-Futurist style of theatre in Chicago. Small neo-futurist movements are still active in New York, Montreal and Chicago.
