Would you believe it, Futurism is 100 years old this year! Founded in 1909 by FT Marinetti, Futurism has arguably been one of the most influential artistic movements of the twentieth century.

To celebrate the anniversary the Estorick Collection is hosting an exhibition dedicated to the works of leading Italian Futurist Umberto Boccioni. On display is a selection of the artist's distinctive drawings and sculptures.

Running alongside this is a selection of work by contemporary artist Luca Buvoli, whose oeuvre engages directly with the themes of the Futurists.

Until 19.04.09.
