Giacomo Balla (1871- 1958), Linea di velocitå e paesaggio, c. 1915
watercolor, pencil, and collage on paper
15 1/2 x 11 inches
signed lower left: FUTURBALLA
I adore this collage by Italian, Futurist artist Giacomo Balla,
at Moeller Fine Arts (NYC - Berlin)!!!!!
Futurism, an early 20th century movement, originated in Italy
& included all artistic mediums .... writing, painting, sculpture, etc. "Portraying the world in a constant state of motion," artists included Umberto Boccioni, Gino Severini, and Carlos Carra.
Balla's stunning collage has a strong Cubistic influence,
incorporating strength, energy, motion, & color!!!
It would be an incredible addition to any collection!!!
