Abstract

The Futurist movement began in 1909 with F.T. Marinetti's Foundation and Manifesto of Futurism. It was not, however, until May 1915, at the Panama-Pacific Exposition in San Francisco, that actual paintings and sculpture by the Italian Futurists were first displayed in the United States. Meanwhile, however, the American public had been exposed to Futurist manifestoes, reproductions of Futurist paintings, and a large body of literature dealing with this art movement. Through the medium of newspapers and magazines, a wide variety of material was made available which makes it possible for us to see how the concept of Futurism developed in America.
