Tea Talks
Futurism in Motion: from “rude and graceless” dance to the revolutionary art of noise
Tea Talks
Inspired by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti's Manifesto of Futurist Dance (1917), a revolutionary dance form emerged in response to the static nature of traditional forms. In line with the poetics of Futurism, it promoted dynamism, speed, and technology.
It does not seek grace, but favors strength and energy: it shakes, surprises, and ignites wonder. At the same time, with the manifesto The Art of Noise (1913), a new sound aesthetic was born, reflecting the noise of modern life, the energy of technological civilization, and all the chaotic poetry of the contemporary city. And the eternal embrace between art and modernity.
