Written Manifesto

•  Scrawling the paper with demented writing
• At last Mythology and the mystic cult of the ideal have been left behind
• We must break down the gates of life to test the bolts and the padlocks!
• Making new ways of design
• Breaking through and starting a new way of thinking
• An interest in the experience of “simultaneity” or the experience of varied types of sensations all at once
• The futurist interest in movement leads to their focus on “lines of force,” lines radiating from the object in the painting to the field of the spectator’s vision and to the spectator’s intuition
• Their artistic origins begin with divisionism
• A rejection of cubism because they believed it was too intellectualized and too static
• A conception of reality as emotional and dynamic; they cultivated new art for its shock value
• lines revealing the object’s “vibrations”
• object’s impact on the environment
