Futurism
Title: Futurism
Location: Tate Modern
Date: 2009-06-12Futurism was an art movement launched by the Italian poet Filippo Tommaso Marinetti in 1909. On 20 February he published his Manifesto of Futurism on the front page of the Paris newspaper Le Figaro. That moment saw the birth of the Futurists, a small group of radical Italian artists working just before the outbreak of World War 1.
Among modernist movements, the Futurists rejected anything old and looked towards a new Italy. This was partly because the weight of past culture in Italy was felt as particularly oppressive. In his Manifesto, Marinetti asserted ‘we will free Italy from her innumerable museums which cover her like countless cemeteries.’
What the Futurists proposed instead was an art that celebrated the modern world of industry and technology: ‘We declare … a new beauty, the beauty of speed. A racing motor car … is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace’ (the celebrated ancient Greek sculpture in the Louvre museum in Paris). From an original blend of elements of Neo-Impressionism and Cubism, the Futurists created a new style that expressed the idea of the dynamism, energy and movement of modern life. The chief artists were Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carrà, Gino Severini and Luigi Russolo.
Tate Modern celebrates the centenary of this dramatic art movement with a ground-breaking exhibition. Here you’ll see the work of the Futurists accompanied by rooms looking at art movements reacting to Futurism, including Cubism, the British art movement Vorticism, and Russian Cubo-Futurism.
Highlights include Boccioni’s dynamic bronze sculpture of a man which seems to leap through thin air, Picasso’s Head of a Woman, Nevinson’s Vorticist masterpiece Bursting Shell, and works by major artists such as Braque, Leger, Malevich, and Duchamp.

The Bunker – Residencies opening
Title: The Bunker – Residencies opening
Location: The Bunker, Abbot street
Description: An exhibition curated by The Centre of The
Universe (Artists: Pim Conradi , Jenny Moore-
Koslowsky, Justin Gainin and Fede)
An Introduction to Art & Artists in East London
by the Bootstrap Company followed by
Drinks, finger food and music
The Bunker is damp – please bring appropriate
shoes.
Start Time: 19:00
Date: 2009-05-26Not quite an exhibition, but a deep challenge to an environment. In an abandoned and unidentified post-
war bunker, spreading out underneath Dalston, East London, this show is a response to the space it inhabits, and
to the history it recalls.THE BUNKER is propelled by the search for different spaces and modes of operation. Pushing our
expectations for the future forward, we can trigger the motor of history to act, evolve and motion.
We have invited the following artists to activate the Bunker with us:Pim Conradi
Pim Conradi’s visionstructures are visual sketches of an on-going research. Through his efforts, he aims to
individuate structures that analyze the relationship between human life and the biosphere, and translate them into
functional proposals that span from architecture to design. This is his first public appearance.
Pim is currently artist-in-residence at Area 10, London.
Jenny Moore-Koslowsky
Jenny Moore-Koslowsky is an artist, singer, song-writer and architect of the imagination. She navigates her work
through allusions which are always mobile, questioning power relationships, disrupting balances and menacing
comfortable confidence.
She has recently participated in ‘Contested Ground’,2009, at 176/Zabludowicz Collection, London; and has
performed This is Impractical, for the exhibition ‘Gold&Delicious’, at The Apple Tree, London.
She is currently completing her MA in Fine Arts at Goldsmiths College, London.
Justin Gainan
Justin Gainan’s practice is a continuous struggle with objects on the verge between uniqueness and rubble,
obsession and quietness.
Recent shows he has participated in include ‘The Shortest Short Story Ever Written,…’. 2008, FormContent,
London; and ‘ThirtyFive Hours’,2009, HFBK project space, Hamburg.
He is also completing his MA in Fine Arts at Goldsmiths College, London.
_________________________________________________________
On the evening, there will be a series of tailored screenings from video-sharing platforms. The show is
accompanied by a selection of publications, and specially commissioned material that survey the area from a
cultural perspective - which are freely available to the public.
__________________________________________________________
THE BUNKER is curated by Catherine Borra.
THE BUNKER is produced by The Centre of the Universe, for and with the support of the Embassy of
Switzerland. Very special thanks to the Bootstrap Company & Antoine Sandoz.Categories: exhibition Related exhibitions and information for The Bunker – Residencies opening

L’Art de la Chasse and The Initiated and the BeastAbout the book
The hunter would have been the first “to tell a story” because he alone was able to read, in the silent, nearly imperceptible tracks left by his prey, a coherent sequence of events. — Carlo GinzburgYoung Swiss designer Régis Tosetti (born 1982 in Lausanne) presents an enhanced version of his thesis for ECAL
(University of art and design, Lausanne), in the form of an artist’s book.Located somewhere between ethnographic investigation, photo-novel, and initiation epic, “l’Art de la Chasse” (“The Art of Hunting”) overcomes biased standpoints by inviting us to reconsider some fundamental processes related to this practice. Tosetti explores the universe of hunting with an extensive series of photographs produced in collaboration with Yann Gross, and concludes with texts introducing a selection of trophy-pictures written in collaboration with Joël Vacheron.
About the author
Régis Tosetti set up his graphic design studio in Zürich, in 2006 after his studies at ECAL. He came to London at the end of 2007
and has been collaborating with James Goggin (Practise studio) since June 2008.The book launch will be followed by a slideshow screening and a DJ set by toot!. Accompanying the book will be two posters designed specifically for the launch.
