"Italian Futurism, 1909-1944: Reconstructing the Universe": this extraordinary exhibition will have its opening at the Guggenheim Museum in New York on Feb. 21, 2014. This outstanding show has been organized to re-evatuale and broaden the notion of what avant-garde means, focusing on one of Europe's most important 20th-century movements.

Vivien Greene, the Guggenheim's curator of 19th- and early-20th-century art, successfully gathered 375 works coming from European museums and private collections.
