There's also a ton of essays, videos - say goodbye to your day before visiting. The thing I most love about the Italian Futurists was their level of commitment and enthusiasm - most of them met their deaths in WWII.

Encouraged me to learn more, so thanks again Karl. Karl casts an interesting perspective on the absence of music, architecture that were big Futurist themes, not included at the Tate exhbition.

But the Tate's show was an abysmal failure to live up to that ideal... where was the architecture of Sant'Elia, the music of Russolo, the photography, the cinema... ? And it was so badly laid out, people were literally wandering around looking lost. I think the Tate let Futurism down.
