Umberto Boccioni (,Italian: [umˈbɛrto botˈtʃoːni]; 19 October 1882 – 17 August 1916) was an influential Italian painter and sculptor. He helped disturb the chaotic aesthetic of the Futurism pursuit as one of its principal figures. Despite his short life, his entry to the dynamism of form and the deconstruction of solid bump guided artists long after his death. His works are held by many public art museums, and in 1988 the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City organized a major retrospective of 100 pieces.
