Music 1912

"Music" by Luigi Russolo, painted in 1912, is a dynamic depiction of the power of sound. The composition features a dark figure silhouetted against a swirling background of vibrant colors and distorted human faces. Russolo, a pioneer of the Futurist movement, sought to capture the dynamism and intensity of modern life, using the principles of this artistic movement to evoke the experience of listening to a symphony of noise. The repetition and geometric patterns of the work reflect the visual language of Futurism, which was largely inspired by technology and urban life.
