Giacomo Balla, Futurist reconstruction of the universe
"After he joined the Futurists in 1910, Giacomo Balla went through a long period of introverted experimentation with the new avant-garde style and subject matter. After a few tries that led him alternatingly between chronophotography and the photodynamism of Bragaglia, Balla, with the intent to represent movement and dynamism, finally arrived, in 1913, to a mature and unique version of Futurism. Through the elaboration of the cycles of the grid-like abstract paintings called iridescent interpenetration and above all with his works dealing with Abstract Speed, Giacomo Balla became one of the most autonomous and original voices of the movement."
