ISM's of Art

I've decided to tackle Futursim (1909-1944) for project 2.  Below are two different examples of Futurism Typography I'd like to base my style of type off of.  





I chose the text,  "The Founding and Manifesto of Futurism" by F.T. Marinetti.  Right now I'm researching Futurism and how to go about implicating this ism project.

  • artistic/social movement
  • glorified concepts including
    • speed
    • technology
    • youth and violence
    • car/airplane/industrial city
Divisionism:  Breaking light/color down into stippled dots and stripes

I'm interested in the architecture within the futurism era, so I think I will keep brainstorming on materials, ideas, and type.  To be continued...
