Conference | Shock and Awe: The Troubling Legacy of the Futurist Cult of War

Wednesday, November 11, 2009, 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Free

F.T. Marinetti and the Futurists celebrated war and Italian colonialism as part of their avant-garde program. In the 1920s and 1930s, Futurist art, music, poetry and performance were dedicated to the cult of aviation and the belligerent military policies of Fascism. On the occasion of the centenary of Futurism, Performa invited well-known art historian Emily Braun to create a symposium specifically addressing this issue, tackling the uneasy, if powerful, alliance of modernist art and politics.

Programs include:

Shock and Awe: The Futurist Vision of the Air Emily Braun, Distinguished Professor

Postal Bombs: Futurist Propaganda Lynda Klich, Assistant Professor of Art History

The Futurist Cult of Speed Vs. Women’s Time and Space Lucie Re, Professor of Italian and Women’s Studies, UCLA

On the Military History of Art: Douhet, Marinetti, and “The Command of the Air” David Lewis, The Graduate Center, CUNY

The Photo In Pieces: Aviation and Photomontage in Bruno Munari Maria Antonella Pelizzari, Associate Professor of Art History

Marinetti’s Bombshell Ernest Ialongo, Assistant Professor of History, Hostos College, CUNY

Roberto Rossellini’s Un Pilota Ritorna: Reflections On the Futurist/Fascist Cult of War Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Professor of Italian Studies and History, NYU

The Venice Biennale At War Laura Beiles, Department of Education, The Museum of Modern Art
Wounds of War: The FIlms of Yervant Gianikian and Angela Ricci Lucchi Robert Lumley, Professor of Italian Cultural History, University College London

A Brief History of Strategic Bombing Elihu Rose, Adjunct Associate Professor of History, NYU
