Abstract
The figurative language research to representing the painting’s movement of an object in space is the central theme of Futurism, influenced by the myth of the exaltation of the land and air speed of the machine, especially the airplane. Sharing the opinion which the construction of a painting is a function of a structure, a system of lines with regard to which is organized the two-dimensional representation, this contribution faces two topics. In the first, will be analyzed the ways of construction and graphic allusion to represent the action in motion in Futurist pictorial images of Balla, Russolo, Carra and Umberto Boccioni, the most innovative and creative Futurism’s member. From this analysis, new images will be created, which graphically interpret the vanguard of the last century. In the second, using the technique of digital motion graphics will elaborate the action represented in a work Futurist painter Tullio Crali, expanding the imagination by virtue of the design of a temporal and musical narration.
