Fillìa (1904 - 1936)

Fillìa

Fillìa is the name adopted by Luigi Colombo, an Italian artist associated with the second generation of Futurism. In addition to painting, his work included interior design, architecture, furniture and decorative objects.

Fillia became a representative of L' Aeropittura (Aeropainting), the dominant futurist style of the 1930s, in which the experience of flight was applied to depicting the landscape from the air; the world was no longer seen from a human perspective on the ground, but as if from an aircraft.
