CARRA, Carlo
[Italian Futurist Painter, 1881-1966]Interventionist Demonstration1914Collage on pasteboard38.5 x 30 cmMattioli Collection, Milan
But that was the Golden Age of modern art. We were still a small group of pioneers, the Paris Cubists and Fauvists, the Italian Futurists, the London Vorticists, the Blue Rider group in Munich, the Expressionists in Berlin and Dresden, Larionov and his friends in Russia. Nationalism was quite unknown to us, and we were all friends, each ready to recommend the others to the few gallery owners, collectors and critics likely to be interested in our work. After the First World War, we found ourselves committed in each country to an absurd patriotism. It had become unpatriotic for a Paris painter, even if he were foreign-born, to know anything about contemporary German art or to praise an Italian artist. Overnight, Picasso seemed to have forgotten all about Kandinsky, Chagall behaved as if he had never heard of Larionov, and only a few personal friends of mine in Paris could remember any of my pictures.- Carlo Carrà, 1959, quoted by Edouard Roditi](http://24.media.tumblr.com/68d1056650aee86d8adc99c2bf37acf2/tumblr_mgoeouHGx31r29g9xo1_500.jpg)
