The Founding Manifesto of “Futurismo” was published in Le Figaro in Paris on February 1909. The instant international notoriety of the movement had such magnitude that it kept its artist’s activity on the front pages in Paris, New York, Berlin and Tokyo. In the years following 1909, the publication of another twenty-six Manifestos had extended the Futurist adventure into a multitude of media, even providing the culinary arts with aesthetic values. The “Manifesto sulla Cucina” was introduced in 1930 and special recipes were created by well-known artists. Exhibitions and celebratory events have been organized since the beginning of this year worldwide.
