Fashion, misogyny and fascist aesthetics at Villa Audi
By Matthew Mosley
Daily Star staff
Friday, July 03, 2009

 Listen to the Article - Powered by

Plains, trains, cars, speed: Futurism was ruggedly masculine in its preoccupations. A new exhibition of works at Villa Audi from the early-20th century art movement allows viewers to sup their fill of angular automotive action. Futurism's fetish for speed and motion is perfectly surmised in Beneddetta Cappa Marinetti's 1933 painting "Genova."
