Abstract
In 1912 Futurist promoter, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, organized a "tournée" of exhibitions, starting froma Galeria Bernheim-Jeune in Paris, that touched different centers of the new art. Particularly, two of the exhibitions have been realized in the Netherlands, in Amsterdam and in Rotterdam, where in 1913 Boccioni exhibited the first futurist sculptures. The text, for an exhibition that has the goal to confront Futurist art with other avant-gardes in one of the most important european museums has been an insight on the works exhibited in those shows and their reviews, peculiarly in the Netherlands.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
