1 The Future of Futurism No pun intended

2 Many Italian Futurists supported Fascism (a form of radical authoritarian nationalism) in the hope of modernizing a divided country between the industrializing north and the rural, archaic South. Like the Fascists, the Futurists were Italian nationalists, radicals, admirers of violence, and were opposed to parliamentary democracy. Marinetti founded the Futurist Political Party in early 1918.

3 Futurism expanded to encompass many artistic domains and ultimately included painting, sculpture, ceramics, graphic design, industrial design, interior design, theatre design, textiles, drama, literature, music and architecture.
