Gino Severini

Between 1910 and 1915 Gino Severini was a central figure of Italian Futurism-the movement that celebrated modern life by giving expression to speed, dynamism and above all contemporary philosophical theories about sensory perception in the new urban and industrial environments of the early 20th century. As a resident of Paris from 1906, he served as an intermediary between his Futurist colleagues in Italy and his friends among the Parisian avant-grade, dominated at this time by Cubism.
