Step into the world of avant-garde art and literature with this rare gem, "Astra e il Sottomarino," adorned with the distinguished signature of Filippo Tommaso Marinetti himself. Published in 1935 by Casella (Tip. Bellavista), this softcover edition is more than just a book; it's a testament to the innovative spirit of the Futurist movement.
At the heart of this autographed treasure is the remarkable union of two artistic minds - Benedetta Cappa and Filippo Tommaso Marinetti. Benedetta Cappa's journey through various art forms, from painting to literature and scenography, underscores her artistic versatility. Introduced to Marinetti by Giacomo Balla at a transformative Balla exhibition in 1918, the two creative souls united and embarked on a journey of artistic exploration and invention.
Their collaborative genius reached its pinnacle during a seaside retreat, birthing a groundbreaking art form known as Tactilism. A manifestation of multi-sensory evolution within Futurism, Tactilism aimed to redefine artistic engagement through touch, forging new connections between art and observer.
Dive into the pages of this autographed work and witness Benedetta Cappa's remarkable artistic trajectory. Participating in prestigious exhibitions such as the Venice Biennale and the Rome Quadriennale, Cappa cemented her place in the annals of art history. Notably, her visionary talents extended to the creation of monumental panels that graced the Post Office building in Palermo. These panels, vividly depicting terrestrial, marine, aerial, telegraphic, and radio communications, have been displayed at the renowned Guggenheim Museum in New York.
As you hold this autographed book in your hands, you're not just acquiring a literary and artistic artifact. You're embracing a tangible link to the past, a narrative woven by two pioneers of artistic innovation. This autographed edition bridges the gap between the written word and visual expression, encapsulating the spirit of Futurism in its pages.
