Futurism

Let us jeer at the exhausted prototypes of the Beautiful, the Grand
the Solemn, the Religious, the Ferocious, the Seductive and the
Terrifying.
The Variety Theatre destroys the Solemn, the Sacred, the Serious,
and the Sublime in Art with a Capital A.

Destroy the Museums. Crack syntax. Sabotage the adjective. Leave nothing but the verb.

Filippo Tommaso Marinetti

This is the movement of the pre-War era that tied itself to the Totalitarian movements, glorified technology, war and the destruction of the bourgeois world and the past.
