Description
Luigi Russolo: A Revolutionary Life and Artistic Vision This book offers a fresh perspective on Luigi Russolo, a key figure in 20th-century art and music. Through extensive archival research and analysis of esoteric texts, Luciano Chessa sheds new light on the influence of the occult on Russolo's work and that of the Futurists. Chessa's study provides a compelling argument for revising our understanding of Russolo, Futurism, and the early avant-garde. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of art, music, and spirituality in the 20th century. With its wealth of insight and observations, this book will appeal to scholars, artists, and enthusiasts seeking to deepen their understanding of Russolo's innovative ideas and their enduring impact on modern culture.
