Unit 5: Manifesto of Futurism.

When reading the “Manifesto of Futurism” is easy to understand the concept of what the writer(s) want art to be.  Sometimes it is easy to get tired of beautiful and perfect things, such as museums and libraries as the manuscript recall. But, from my point of view there is no justification to get rid of beautiful and perfect things, given that those are the most appreciated things to have a happy human life. From the beginning of the time for art, all kind of artists have been trying to organize, perfect and beautify all forms of art. So, I do not find a reasonable reason for tearing down all what artists of all generations have been struggling for. The word “futurism” is a really eccentric word for whatever tendency the manuscript talks about. I think that the word “futurism” should represent progress and evolution of humanity and art. What the manuscript dictates is something absolutely not a list of principles that would take humanity and art to achieve progress and evolution, but all the contrary instead. Terms such as “scorn for women,” “violence,” “cruelty” and “injustice” are things society fights and struggles everyday with. Because those things are bad situations. There is not even a little chance that people would accept something like this manifesto in their lives. Humanity is progress and evolution, a synonym for good, happier and easier, and art is a reflection of it.
