The work "Bitter Campari l'aperitivo" by Fortunato Depero is of great value and beauty.

Fortunato Depero 1892 - 1960 is one of the leading exponents of the Futurist movement.
Futurism was an artistic and avant-garde movement born in the early 1900s, conceived and founded by the poet Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (1876-1944).

The foundations of Futurism were the new guiding principles for culture, art and lifestyle to renew society, opposing and countering the models adopted in the past.
Futurism involved other fields beyond art: architecture, fashion, music, dance, theatre, cinema and gastronomy.
Futurism, as an avant-garde artistic movement, spanned several decades, from 1909 to 1944.

This manifesto was created in its first edition by Depero in 1928, in full Futurist style.

The manifesto "Bitter Campari l'aperitivo" fits into a decade-long collaboration between Depero and Campari,
from about 1925-26 to 1936.

Admiring this manifesto one is captivated by the linear and geometric graphic design and by the vibrant colors
that the artist has harmoniously combined and that stand out thanks to the black background.

A graphic design rich in originality, elegance and beauty emerges.

The medium format uniquely and perfectly enhances the beauty of this work.

A work of great taste and perfect as a decorative furnishing element.
