Sketch for the ballet by Igor Stravinsky: Fireworks (Feu d'artifice) 1915

Giacomo Balla's 1915 "Sketch for the ballet by Igor Stravinsky: Fireworks (Feu d'artifice)" is a quintessential example of Futurist art. It embodies the movement's fascination with speed, dynamism, and the breakdown of forms into geometric shapes. The artwork's vibrant colors and bold lines, with its focus on a geometric composition and overlapping planes, convey a sense of motion and fragmentation, reflecting the energy and chaos of modern life.
