Abstract:This volume offers an in-depth exploration of the conceptual and visual continuity between Italian Futurism and American Graffiti, two movements that, although emerging in different historical contexts, share a vision focused on the dynamism of the future and the expression of the energy of the present. While Futurism celebrated speed and technological innovation as symbols of modernity, Graffiti transformed the spray can into a tool of visual storytelling, giving voice to narratives of cultural identity and urban resistance. The catalog includes essays by the curators and critical contributions, accompanied by documents and iconic images that confirm the rise and evolution of these two artistic currents, highlighting their undeniable relevance in the twentieth-century cultural landscape
