Today’s Painting
今日畫作
After a period spent in Rome, in 1906 the artist Umberto Boccioni decided to move to Paris, driven by poverty and disillusioned with the artistic climate of the Italian capital, where the ferments and innovations at work in Europe found no echo.
畫家翁貝託·博喬尼在羅馬度過一段時光之後，於1906年決定搬去巴黎，這是因為貧窮以及對意大利首都的藝術氛圍感到幻滅，在這個歐洲城市，工作的激動和創新沒有任何迴音。
He embarked on a series of journeys that included a stay in Russia and concluded with a move to Milan, where he settled, attracted by the new technological spirit that animated the city, and where he met the founders of the Futurist movement, who had signed its first Manifesto as early as 1909.
他踏上了一系列的旅行，包括在俄羅斯逗留，最後搬到米蘭，他在米蘭定居，並被賦予城市活力的新技術精神所吸引，還在那裡遇到了未來主義運動的創始人，他們早在1909年就簽署了第一份宣言。
He promptly joined the movement, becoming perhaps its main interpreter and theorist.
In Riot in the Gallery, executed in the months immediately after his signature of the Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting (1910), he utilized (and took to an extreme) the Divisionist technique to study the movements of the crowd and to create unprecedented effects of light and dynamism, accentuated by the use of extremely bright complementary colors.
他立即加入了該運動，並可能成為了該運動主要的闡述者和理論家。他在簽署了《未來主義繪畫技術宣言》（1910年）後的幾個月後就被處死了。在《畫廊暴動》中，他利用（並極端化了）新印象畫派技術研究了人群的運動，並通過著重使用極其明亮的互補色，創造出了前所未有的燈光和動態效果。
Umberto Boccioni was an influential Italian painter and sculptor. He helped shape the revolutionary aesthetic of the Futurism movement as one of its principal figures. Despite his short life, his approach to the dynamism of form and the deconstruction of solid mass guided artists long after his death.
翁貝託·博喬尼是一位很有影響力的意大利畫家和雕塑家。他作為未來主義運動主要人物之一，幫助塑造了該運動的革命性美學。儘管他的生命短暫，但他處理形式動態的方法與對固體的解構在他去世很久後依然指引了其他畫家。
Artist Introduction
畫家簡介
The little known about his years in Rome is found in the autobiography of his friend Gino Severini (1883-1966), who recalled their meeting in 1901 and mutual interest in Nietzsche, rebellion, life experiences and socialism. Boccioni's writings at this time already express the combination of outrage and irony that would become a lifelong characteristic.
人們對翁貝託·博喬尼在羅馬的歲月所知甚少。他的朋友吉諾·塞維里尼（1883-1966）在自傳中提到過這段歲月，他回憶起1901年兩人的會面以及兩人對尼采，反叛和生活經驗和社會主義都有共同的興趣。此時博喬尼的文字已經表達了憤怒和諷刺的結合，這將其成為其終身的特徵。
His critical and rebellious nature, and overall intellectual ability, would contribute substantially to the development of the Futurism movement. After building a foundation of skills, having studied the classics through Impressionism, both he and Severini became students of Giacomo Balla (1871-1958), a painter focusing on the modern Divisionist technique, painting with divided rather than mixed color and breaking the painted surface into a field of stippled dots and stripes.
他富有批判性和叛逆性的本性以及綜合智力水平將極大地促進未來主義運動的發展。他在建立了技能基礎後，通過印象派學習了經典作品。隨後他和西弗林成為了賈科莫·巴拉（1871-1958）的學生。賈科莫·巴拉是一位專注於現代新印象畫派技術的畫家，採用分色而非混合色繪畫並將著色表面分解成點狀的斑點和條紋的領域。
Severini wrote "It was a great stroke of luck for us to meet such a man, whose direction was decisive of all our careers. In 1906, he briefly moved to Paris, where he studied Impressionist and Post-Impressionist styles, before visiting Russia for three months, getting a first-hand view of the civil unrest and governmental crackdowns. Returning to Italy in 1907, he briefly took drawing classes at the Accademia di Belle Arti of Venice.
塞韋里尼寫道：“我們能夠遇到這樣一位畫家，真是撞大運了，他的方向對我們的職業生涯起到了決定性的作用。”1906年，他短暫移居巴黎，在那裡他學習了印象派和後印象派風格。在他前往俄羅斯訪問三個月前，他獲得了內亂和政府鎮壓的第一手資料。1907年，他回到意大利，在威尼斯藝術學院短暫上了繪畫班。
He had first visited the Famiglia Artistica, a society for artists in Milan, in 1901. On 11 February 1910 Boccioni, with Balla, Carlo Carrà, Luigi Russolo and Severini, signed the Manifesto dei pittori futuristi ("Manifesto of Futurist painters"), and on 8 March he read the manifesto at the Politeama Chiarella theatre in Turin. Boccioni became the main theorist of the artistic movement.
1901年，他首先拜訪了法米加里亞藝術家協會，這是米蘭的一個畫家協會。1910年2月11日，博喬尼與巴拉，卡洛·卡拉，路易·魯索洛和塞韋里尼簽署了《未來主義畫家宣言》，並於3月8日在都靈奇亞雷拉理工學院劇院宣讀了該宣言。博喬尼成為該藝術運動的主要理論家。
