Futurism was an outrageous and influential art movement that came forth in the early years of the twentieth century and was devoted to the exaltation of everything new and the destruction of everything old.

Futurists invented Happenings and performance art before the Dadaists. They disrupted museum shows and opera performances and staged guerilla events in public squares, singing, shouting, and showering theaters with leaflets stating their goals.  by T.J.
