📖 100 Artists' Manifestos From the Futurists to the Stuckists

In this remarkable collection of 100 manifestos from the last 100 years, Alex Danchev presents a cacophony of voices from such diverse movements as Futurism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Feminism, Communism, Destructivism, Vorticism, Stridentism, Cannibalism and Stuckism, taking in along the way film, architecture, fashion and cookery. Artists' manifestos are nothing if not revolutionary. They are outlandish, outrageous and frequently offensive. They combine wit, wisdom and world-shaking demands. This collection gathers together an international array of artists of every stripe, including Kandinsky, Mayakovsky, Rodchenko, Le Corbusier, Picabia, Dalf, Oldenburg, Vertov, Baselitz, Kitaj, Murakami, and Gilbert and George, together with their allies and collaborators - such figures as Marinetti, Apollinaire, Breton, Trotsky, Guy Debord and Rem Koolhaas.
