+==PREFACE==
+The year of 2009 is marked a hundreds’ anniversary of the publication of celebrated [[http://www.cscs.umich.edu/~crshalizi/T4PM/futurist-manifesto.html|Futurist Manifesto]] by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filippo_Tommaso_Marinetti|Filippo Tommaso Marinetti]] in Pariser Le Figaro magazine. Its reception – along with the one of his very persona – happened to be contradictional in both perception of those times and caused discussions on Marinetti's belonging to left-wingers or right-wingers up to nowadays.
+Whereas his ideas have initially been considered a certain call for liberation and freedom, the same energy (alternated from even inside?) led to a sort of totalitarian philosophy with concept of War proclaimed of finest expression of human's naturality and violence crowning on the top of civil values.
+In Russia, Marinetti particular publicity was due to his - as well as his ideas - acceptance by such figures as **David Burljuk**, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Mayakovsky|Vladimir Majakovski]] and other [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Futurism|Russian cubofuturists]] and has initially received a hundred percent leftist understanding.
+However, as Marinetti transformed to a fascist ideologist who then supported the Mussolini regime his visions met certain seizure which followed his name being deleted from literary studies in Soviet Russia.
+**Enduring Futurism** is a project that brings together a number of contemporary Russian artists and intellectuals - allowing for [[artists:Bernd Brincken]] of Germany and [[artists:Giovanni de Dona]] of Italy - whose opuses are pointed at themes of war, (power of) rhythm, pattern, (cult of) future and prognostication.
+**Enduring Futurism** highlights the fact of concrete relations historically grown between two movements and that have got a certain historical impact on the understanding of the above-mentioned issues in the modern era.
+Thus, this exhibition accompanied with a series of presentations and publications is meant to be a kind of living descent to the Italian soil and the other link to historical events and huge Russian reception, the biggest ever in the world of this Italian-born philosophy.
