| The City Rises by Umberto Boccioni, 1910 |
It is one of the important Italian avant-garde art movement in the early 20th century. Futurism embraces the advanced technological changes and tends to demonstrate the beauty elements of modern life, such as the power of machine, speed and energy.
The City Rises was the first futurist work done by Umberto Boccioni. It demonstrates the scene of men labour using the power of horses at a work site. The top right corner of the painting shows the construction of new modern buildings, implicating the energy power and the revolution of a city. Bold emotive colours were applied using quick successive brushstrokes.
