| Artist, born in Turin, NW Italy. Largely self-taught, he was the master of the Futurists Boccioni and Severini. After a visit to Paris in 1900 he was strongly influenced by Impressionism and Divisionism. He was one of the founders of Futurism and a signatory to the 1910 Futurist Manifesto. Primarily concerned with conveying movement and speed in painterly terms, he achieved this by imitating time-lapse photography. By 1930, he was painting in a more conventional style. |
