October 19 – 25 = IX Settimana della Lingua Italiana nel Mondo

  • Umberto Boccioni was born on October 19, 1882

  • Oops – missed this – the comune of Morciano (hey, I’ve been there!) held a conference to discuss its Futurist heritage
  • Gazebo + Windows + Boccioni. Discuss.
  • Read about the events organized by SFMOMA, the Italian Cultural Institute, and Performa (New York) to celebrate the first 100 years of the Futurist Manifesto. The city-wide project, named Metal+Machine+Manifesto=Futurism’s First 100 Years started last Wednesday (Oct 14) with the opening of the exhibition “Fortunato Depero 50” at the Italian Cultural Institute (on view through December 4, 2009).
