Italian Futurism was not merely an artistic movement, but a way of life. to be a Futurist in early 20th-century Italy was to be mod-ern, young, insurgent. Inspired by the mark-ers of modernity—the industrial city, the machine, speed—adherents celebrated dis-ruption and exalted war, seeking to revital-ize what they perceived as a static, decaying culture and an impotent nation that looked to the past for its identity. Futurism originat-ed in literature, but quickly permeated the visual and performing arts, advertising, and politics. Masterminded by writer, publisher, and impresario Filippo tommaso Marinetti, who launched Futurism in 1909 with a founding manifesto, the group evolved until Marinetti’s death in 1944. throughout this period, the Futurists’ engagement with dynamism, simultaneity, and technology endured. Marinetti’s continuous leadership ensured the vanguard’s cohesion for more than three decades. By the 1930s, Futurism had spread to every corner of Italy and ex-ercised considerable influence abroad, in places as distant as Japan and Brazil.

A comprehensive overview of Italian Futurism—one of the 20th century’s most vital avant-gardes—has yet to be pre-sented in the united States. Investigations of the style’s first phase, called “heroic” Futurism, have predominated, but com-paratively few exhibitions have been real-ized on the subsequent life of this idiom. More broadly, Italian art from the 1920s and ’30s has been largely overlooked. the taint of the Futurists’ oscillating association

with Fascism is another cause for this nar-row vision, further problematized by the group’s complicated, paradoxical princi-ples. their antifeminine stance was belied by the presence of women participants. Similarly, they embraced popular culture and rejected academic mores, but retained the academy’s artistic hierarchy privileging painting. these complexities, however, underscore the need to clarify Futurism’s sweeping history.

Italian Futurism unfolds chronologically, integrating multiple mediums through-out the exhibition. Futurism’s history is traced from its 1909 founding to the cata-lytic encounter that the first generation of members had with French Cubism in Paris in 1911, through their exploration of near-abstract compositions that lasted until the outbreak of World War I. the avant-garde’s main figures, including giacomo Balla, umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carrà, and gino Severini, created works character-ized by dynamic movement and fractured forms, aspiring to break with existing no-tions of space and time to situate the view-er at the center of the artwork. the printed word was pivotal for Futurism. Manifestos addressing every imaginable topic; words-in-freedom po-ems intended to be read, performed, and

experienced as art; avant-garde novels; and journals distinguished by experimental typography articulated and disseminated the group’s ideas. Among the Futurists’ pioneering contributions to modernism were their serate (performative evenings). these occurrences merged high and low culture in unprecedented ways, broke down the barrier between spectator and performer, and entailed multiple, simulta-neous events ranging from declamations to Luigi Russolo’s noise-composition per-formances that used his invented instru-ments called intonarumori (noisemakers). Following World War I, the vanguard gained new members and assumed differ-ent formal qualities, including those of arte meccanica (machine aesthetics). Artists such as Balla and Fortunato Depero ex-plored the opera d’arte totale (“total work of art” ) in private and public spaces, design-ing all-encompassing interior ensembles and establishing case d’arte (art houses) to market their designs. By the 1920s, painter, writer, publisher, architect, theater designer, and director enrico Prampolini had gained visibility. Benedetta, who later married Marinetti, emerged as another major creative force of “Second Futurism” through her writing and painting. the swirling, sometimes abstracted, aerial imagery of Futurism’s final incarna-tion, aeropittura (aerial painting), arrived in the 1930s. the Futurist cult of the machine had shifted focus from the automobile to the airplane, propelled by Italy’s military

preeminence in aviation and the daring flights beloved by the populace, particu-larly Italo Balbo’s transatlantic crossings. evidenced by the work of gerardo Dottori, tullio Crali, and tato, aeropittura represent-ed a novel painting approach that united the Futurists’ omnipresent interests in national-ism, speed, technology, and war, providing new and dizzying perspectives that celebrat-ed all of these concepts. their fascination with the aerial expanded to other mediums, among these aeroceramica (aerial ceramics), aerodanza (aerial dance), and aerodinamismi (experimental aerial photography). the exhibition concludes with the monumental canvases that compose the Syntheses of Communications (1934–35) by Benedetta, which will be on view through August 20. executed for the Palazzo delle Poste in Palermo, Sicily, the canvases are being shown for the first time

outside of their intended building. the paintings extol multiple modes of commu-nication, many enabled by technological innovations, and coincide with the themes of modernity and the total work of art that underpinned the Futurist ethos.

Under the Same Sun: Art from Latin America Today is the second exhibition in a multiyear initiative, conceived by the guggenheim in collaboration with uBS, which charts contemporary art and cre-ative activity across three global regions. Featuring recent acquisitions in drawing, installation, mixed media, painting, sculp-ture, and video, the exhibition presents a wide range of approaches and aesthetics. Demonstrating that Latin America can-not be reduced to a single, homogeneous entity, Under the Same Sun surveys the diversity of recent creative responses to shared realities molded by colonial and modern history, repressive govern-ment policies, economic crisis, and social

inequality, as well as by periods of eco-nomic development and progress. Despite financial growth and increased stability in most of the continent over the past de-cade, Latin America remains divided by class and ethnic difference, and marked by political and economic upheaval. Under the Same Sun presents recent art that ad-dresses the past and present of this subtle and complex situation, exploring possible alternative futures. the works in the exhibition that are assem-bled in the galleries on Annex Levels 2 and 4 investigate different artistic themes in Latin American art today, and address the follow-ing themes: Abstraction, Conceptualism, emancipation/Participation, Modernities, Political Activism, and the tropical. Videos by artists and collaborative duos that also explore these topics are being screened in

the New Media theater on the Lower Level throughout the course of the exhibition.

the history of the guggenheim is inter-twined with the work of Vasily Kandinsky (1866–1944) more than that of any other artist of the 20th century. Artist, art advi-sor, and the museum’s first director hilla Rebay encouraged founder Solomon R. guggenheim to begin collecting Kandinsky’s work in 1929 and to meet the artist for the first time at the Dessau Bauhaus in July 1930. this introduction initiated an ongo-ing acquisition period of Kandinsky’s art, with more than 150 works ultimately enter-ing the museum’s collection. three decades prior to that fateful Dessau meeting, Kandinsky launched his artistic career. In 1896 he left his native Moscow for Munich, the major european center for academic training next to Paris. he quickly realized his talent for working with three classic printmaking techniques—etching, woodcut, and lithog-raphy—and began to evolve as an artist and theoretician. Recollections of Russia, such as the brightly decorated furniture and votive pictures that he had observed in the homes of peasants, combined with romantic historicism, lyric poetry, folklore, and pure fantasy, informed his early work. Kandinsky began traveling extensively in 1904 with his partner, the german artist gabriele Münter, before settling in Munich

again in 1908 and translating the poetic manner of his printmaking to landscape painting. Such graphic elements as clearly delineated forms, flattened perspective, and the black-and-white “noncolors” of his woodcuts pervade the jewel-colored Bavarian landscapes of 1908–09. these paintings differ remarkably from his earlier exercises in Neo-Impressionist painting. By 1913, he had already reduced his rec-ognizable and recurrent motifs—including the horse and rider, rolling hills, towers, and trees—to broad areas of bright, ra-diant color that were subsidiary to the

expressive qualities of line and color. these calligraphic contours and rhythmic forms reveal scarce traces of their repre-sentational origins. Kandinsky was finally able to evoke what he called the “hidden power of the palette” and move away from his pictorial beginnings, thus embarking on the road to abstraction.

a Long-awaited tribute: Frank LLoyd wright’s usonian house and PaviLion ongoingOn October 22, 1953, Sixty Years of Living Architecture opened on the site where the guggenheim would eventually be built. two Frank Lloyd Wright–designed buildings were constructed specifically to house the exhibition: a temporary pavil-ion made of glass, fiberboard, and pipe columns, and a 1,700-square-foot, fully furnished, two-bedroom model usonian house representing the architect’s organic solution for modest, middle-class dwell-ings. Despite his fifty years of international architectural recognition and practice by 1953, Wright had yet to erect a building in Manhattan. this presentation, a selec-tion of materials culled from the museum archives, pays homage to these two struc-tures, his first to be erected in New York.
