Futurists wanted to suggest movement by means of a dynamic painting; Duchamp applies the notion of delay - or, rather, or analysis - to movement.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In the works of Duchamp, space begins to walk and take on form; it becomes a machine that spins arguments and philosophizes; it resists movement with delay and delay with irony.
Futurism: This was a movement of intellectuals who wanted to replace tradition with the modern world of machinery, speed, violence, and public relations. It proves that we should be careful what intellectuals wish for, because we might get it.
The Futurists were an art movement in the early 20th century which basically glorified machines and the Industrial Revolution.
History may be divided into three movements: what moves rapidly, what moves slowly and what appears not to move at all.
To me, this was an oxymoron, doing a painting of a dancer. Dancers are always moving.
Painting is the passage from the chaos of the emotions to the order of the possible.
Artists know that diligence counts as much, if not more, as inspiration; in art, as in politics, patience counts as much as revolution.
Sometimes art is ahead of revolution.
The modern artist... is working and expressing an inner world - in other words - expressing the energy, the motion, and other inner forces.
The ostensible subject of my photographs may be motion, but the subtext is time. A dancer's movements illustrate the passage of time, giving it a substance, materiality, and space. In my photographs, time is stopped, a split second becomes an eternity, and an ephemeral moment is solid as sculpture.
