For Tullio Crali (1910-2000) Futurism was not simply a style of painting, but an attitude to life itself. This exhilarating exhibition explored every phase of Crali’s remarkably coherent career, featuring a large number of rarely seen works from the 1920s to the 1980s.

Futurist Skies: Italian Aeropainting

EXHIBITION

6 January 2005 - 20 February 2005

Dominating Futurist art throughout the 1930s, aeropainting embodied the movement’s fascination with technology, speed and the machine, striving to capture the visual and metaphysical sensations of flight in dramatic and often intensely poetic imagery. This exhibition offered visitors an exhilarating birds-eye view of the world through the eyes of the Futurist artists.

Balla and Futurist Italy: Paintings from the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna, Rome

EXHIBITION

9 September 1998 - 13 December 1998

This exhibition of 23 Futurist works on loan from the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna, Rome, linked the first and second waves of Futurism through the works of Giacomo Balla (1871-1958). Balla was already well established as an artist and teacher before coming under the influence of Futurism in 1910. His extraordinary versatility and creativity had a profound influence on his contemporaries and the eight canvases on show were from his most vibrant Futurist period.
