Estorick Collectionさんのイラストまとめ

Crali seems to have been a supremely confident painter who rarely made preparatory studies for his works. This series of drawings is an exception to the rule, and may reflect Crali’s awareness that he was on the verge of his first major artistic statement.

This drawing dated 1907 is the perfect introduction to Umberto Boccioni’s work at this time. It reveals the central role played in the artist’s imagination by the female figure.

🔉Listen to this extract from Tullio Crali, Aeropittura Futurista Italiana, 1941.

Carlo Carrà was born #onthisday in 1881.

Together with Umberto Boccioni and Luigi Russolo he drafted the Manifesto of the Futurist Painters and the Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting (both 1910), issuing his own manifesto The Painting of Sounds, Noises and Smells in 1913.

Luigi Russolo died #onthisday in 1947.

In 1913 he published his revolutionary manifesto ‘The Art of Noises’, calling for the integration of a range of different sound effects into musical compositions.

For Crali, aviation was a technological marvel, but it also possessed a profoundly lyrical – even spiritual – dimension:
“The direct, pure emotions experienced at great altitudes [...] liberate us from our everyday preoccupations and allow us to touch the threshold of Heaven”.

During the reconstruction of the lost Boccioni’s sculptures, light sources were added in the rendering software to simulate the shadows cast in the original photographs as closely as possible. This helped to establish the size of the shapes, and the work’s overall proportions.
