Futurist Manifesto

This manifesto is incredibly deep and passionate, very similar to a great motivational speech. You can't help but appreciate the enthusiasm and the overall energy devoted to it, though some of the ideas may seem farfetched. I can't say I have ever heard someone speak about art in terms of revolution and as a new beginning. And since it was written over 100 years ago is extraordinary, seeming as if it was written in our lifetime. Though very idealistic, Marinetti captures you with his flare for excitement in ways you may have not thought possible. However, don't be fooled by the rash ideas he's promoting in this manifesto, but do feel inspired to give an equal amount of passion that he presents, into our art studies.
