The idea of futurism: breaking with 19th-century romanticism and eliminating the past, slowing down the speed and modern industrial revolution in all aspects of life, including art, architecture, music, poetry, film, fashion, physics, and technology, was visible in all the works of this avant-garde artist.
Some of his main works:

- Futurist cooking;
- Futurist music.
Literary movement: Futurism.
“There is no longer any beauty except the struggle. Any work of art that lacks a sense of aggression can never be a masterpiece.” – Filippo Marinetti
