Futurist Bologna 15 days before, 100 years later

Synopsis

100 years ago Futurism was born, the only great Italian artistic avant-garde that had an echo all over the world, anticipating movements and trends, from Russia to Mexico, from Portugal to Japan. 100 years ago Futurism was born but not, as everyone believes, on February 20 in Le Figaro in Paris but on February 5 when the Gazzetta dell'Emilia, in Bologna, was the first to publish Marinetti's famous manifesto.
