One hundred years after the publication in Le Figaro on February 20 1909 of the Futurist Manifesto, signed by the &#8216;jeune po&#232;te italien&#8217; Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection celebrates this revolutionary avant-garde movement with the exhibition <em>Masterpieces of Futurism</em> at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, curated by Philip Rylands, director of the Venetian museum (from February 18 through 2009).
