| book description |

Although Futurism is best known for its interest in technology and modern urban life, many artists affiliated with the movement also engaged with Primitivism, both in Italy and in other parts of the world. Volume 15 of the International Yearbook of Futurism Studies looks at how Futurist Primitivism responded to and shaped colonialism in Africa, how it related to the national heritage, how it interacted with art practices of indigenous populations and how some of its members self-identified as barbarians, primitives and naïve creators. Eleven scholars explore in this volume Futurist Primitivism as an anti-classicist impulse in Italy, France,Portugal, Russia, Poland, Yugoslavia, Brazil and Peru and show how it proposed new ways of shaping local, regional, national and individual aesthetics and identities. New interdisciplinary research on the connection between Futurism and Primitivism With reviews and exhibition reports as well as a detailed report on new publications on Futurism
