“Marinetti stated a desire ‘to redouble the expressive force of words’ and spoke of ‘the flux and reflux, the leaps and bursts of style that run through the page’. As if the printed page was a battlefield. In fact, in a number of pioneering Futurist works, including Marinetti’s books, Zang Tumb Tumb (1914) and les Mots en liberté (Words-in-Freedom) and Carlo Carrà’s Guerrapittura (War-painting), were inspired by the mechanized warfare unleashed by World War II”.
