Study for Iridescent Interpenetration 1912

"Study for Iridescent Interpenetration" (1912) by Giacomo Balla is a vibrant, abstract composition that showcases the artist's fascination with light, color, and movement. The work is composed of a series of radiating lines in red, blue, green, and yellow, creating a sense of energy and dynamism. Balla, a key figure in Italian Futurism, aimed to capture the dynamism of modern life through his paintings. This study, likely for a larger work, embodies the core tenets of Futurism, emphasizing speed, technology, and the fragmentation of form.
