<h2>Words in Freedom</h2>Cross-curricula KS3 - 5In this workshop learners will have the chance to get a general overview of the Futurist movement with an emphasis of experimenting with language. The talk will explore the works of major Futurist artists such as Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carrà and Gino Severini. Students will create their own pieces inspired by Carlo Carrà’s Atmospheric Swirls - A Bursting Shell (1914), where he experimented with language drawn from Marinetti’s poem Zang Tumb Tumb.

The Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art opened in London in 1998. A Grade II listed Georgian town house, it was originally restored with support from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Further recent renovations have opened up the space of the ground-floor entranceway, bookshop and café, while its six galleries and art library have also been fully upgraded. The Collection is known internationally for its core of Futurist works, as well as figurative art and sculpture dating from 1890 to the 1950s. The exhibition programme continues to address artists, movements, and questions in ways that change our understanding of Italian art and culture.
