Futurism influenced many other twentieth century art movements, including Art Deco, Vorticism, Constructivism and Surrealism.
The painter and sculptor Umberto Boccioni (1882-1916) wrote the Manifesto of Futurist Painters in 1910 in which he vowed:
The Futurists explored every medium of art, including painting, sculpture, poetry, theatre, music, architecture and even gastronomy.

 FUTURISM AND THE FUTURISTS - by Bob Osborn
Futurism was a far-reaching Italian movement that included poetry, literature, painting, graphics, typography, sculpture, product design, architecture, photography, cinema and the performing arts and focused on the dynamic, energetic and violent character of changing 20th century life, especially city life.
There is no doubt that Futurism was the first 'modern' attempt to reorganise art and society around technology and the machine ethic and, as a common ancestor of most 20th century art, there are intrinsic vestiges of Futurism to be found throughout avant-garde art during the whole of the twentieth century.
The so-called 'Second' Futurism of the 1920's and 30's was, in the main, a movement of apolitical artists.

 Futurism: Learn about art and the Futurism art movement
The manifesto was a downright rejection of modern arts effort to portray artwork.
These artists participated in one of the loudest art movements ever to take place in modern art.
When Futurism first found its way into the art world, the creator of the movement, Marinetti, struggled with the idea of what to call his new movement.

 ArchitectureWeek - Culture - Art Deco South Beach - 2002.1030
The art deco movement drew inspiration from the modern art movements, particularly the concept of multiple points of view of cubism, and the themes of machines and motion in futurism.
Although it was similar in context and emphasis to the decorative style of "art nouveau," a stronger connection to modernism distinguished art deco.
Art deco also tried to hint at other art forms, like jazz and swing music and the dance fashions of the era.

 Italian Futurism
Futurism was the first attempt in the 20th century to reinvent life as it was being transfixed by new technologies and conceive of a new race in the form of machine-extended man. Futurism succinctly reiterated a cognate set of ideas which reverberates all through a multitude of forms in 20th century art expression.
From the collapse and bankruptcy of traditional Western art forms and aesthetics at the end of 19th century, the art of discontinuity and rupture was produced
This had a big influence on the Italian Futurist painter, Luigi Russolo, who in turn invented an Art of Noise, which then had an extensive impact on succeeding generations, resulting in Russolo being viewed as the 'grandfather' of modern sound culture.

 FLUXEUROPA: FUTURISM
Although mainly associated with the visual arts, Futurism began in 1909 with the proclamation of a manifesto by the Italian poet, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (1876-1944).
The course of Futurism was to be characterised by the issuing of manifestos, and, indeed, it has been suggested that the ideas were better than the art.
Besides the visual arts, Futurism was also to manifest itself in literature, the theatre and music, with proclamations eventually reaching clothes fashions, food and drink, and even toys.

Futurism was aggressive and inflammatory, and the art of this era was intended to anger and inspire controversy.
He wanted art to reflect the power of the machine, which he felt was more applicable to the times than the static and irrelevant art of the past.
Futurist painters adopted many of the techniques of the Cubists, but while the Cubists favored still lifes and portraits, Futurists portrayed speeding cars, cyclists, dancers and sciences from urban life.

 LEON TROTSKY Literature and Revolution Chapter 4— Futurism
Whether for good or for bad, the "lathelike" art will remain for many years more, and will be the instrument of the artistic and social development of the masses and their æsthetic enjoyment, and this is true not only of the art of painting, but of lyrics, novels, comedies, tragedies, sculpture and symphony.
To reject art as a means of picturing and imaging knowledge because of one's opposition to the contemplative and impressionistic bourgeois art of the last few decades, is to strike from the hands of the class which is building a new society its most important weapon.
FUTURISM is a European phenomenon, and it is interesting because, in spite of the teachings of the Russian Formalist school, it did not shut itself in within the confines of art, but from the first, especially in Italy, it connected itself with political and social events.

 FUTURISM
Futurism was the first deliberately organized, self-conscious art movement of the twentieth century.
In the 1920's and 1930's the term Futurism was loosely used to describe a wide variety of aggressively modern styles in art and literature.
One Italian critic labelled them 'art wiseguys' calling them 'the caffeine of Europe.' In a series of manifestos designed to shock and provoke the public, they formulated styles of painting, music, sculpture, theatre, poetry, architecture, cooking, clothing, and furniture.

The political corollary to rationalism was democracy in politics and academicism in art; both were undermined by the "antirationalism" of the Futurist program.
Italian painting, we are told, had previously been "egoistic, antinational, antiheroic"; as the "primitives" of a new sensibility the Futurists rejected the outmoded "democratic-rationalist" precep ts undergirding such art.

 ArtLex on Futurism
- A modern art movement originating among Italian artists in 1909, when Filippo Marinetti's first manifesto of futurism appeared, until the end of World War I. Futurism was a celebration of the machine age, glorifying war and favoring the growth of fascism.
Futurist painting and sculpture were especially concerned with expressing movement and the dynamics of natural and man-made forms.
One of very few American Futurists, Stella's contribution to Futurism is contained in a series of paintings celebrating the dynamism of New York's Brooklyn Bridge and Coney Island.

The term Futurism caught the imagination of writers and artists throughout the world, as did Marmetti's insistence that the artist turn his back on past art and conventional procedures to concern himself with the vital, noisy life of the burgeoning industrial city.
In Italy a group of painters gathered with the poets around Marinetti in 1909 to work out the implications of his manifesto for the visual arts.
Manifestoes were published also for music, first in July 1912 by Ballila Pratella, and Russolo devoted much of his time to experiments with music created by a battery of noise machines.

Till then still fragmented and immersed in her never-ending past, Italy was home to regional art movements of narrow provincial limitation, incapable to relate to the cutting edge art currents of their times.
While "contradiction" marked the developments of Futurism across its 30 years of history, "consistency" could be the key word to describe how Belloli pursued his poetic quest in the nearly 60 years of his life following the end of WWII.
Even further: according to Perloff, it is possible to look upon the Futurist movement from the eyes of conceptual art, with the Manifesto's being the true key asset to the entire aesthetic and philosophical operation orchestrated by Marinetti.

 U B U W E B :: Robert P. Morgan on Music + Futurism
Pater's oft-cited phrase that all art "aspires to the condition of music" is but one of countless such paeans voiced by artists and writers throughout the century.
That century's belief in progress, focussing attention toward the future, was first and foremost tied to achievements in science, industry, and technology; but it was no less critical for the arts, including music.
The widespread appearance of purely abstract art in 1912 encouraged several painters to strip down the content of their work to what Kasimir Malevich a few years later called "the zero of form," apparently denying everything previously held necessary to the definition of "painting," including even its craft.
