Movement as
inspiration
Movement in art
Many artists have
used the concept
of Movement in
their art.
Using a variety of
techniques, they
evoke the effects
of movement.
The Futurists were
inspired by speed
and movement.
Giacomo Balla, (Futurist), Speed of a Motorcycle, 1913, Oil on Canvas

What techniques do
the futurists use to
express a sense of
movement?
Umberto Boccioni, "Unique Forms of
Continuity in Space," 1913.
Sculpture. Cast in bronze (originally
made of plaster).
David Hockney
David Hockney is a
British artist with a
long career in a wide
range of art forms
including painting,
photography and
stage design.
Hockneys paintings
of the 1960s
capture a moment
in time, with
movement frozen.
This is quite a
different approach to
the Futurists and
Claude Flight.
