Several of the Futurists, notably Boccioni and Sant'Elia, were killed during World War I. Prominent Futurists included painter and sculptor Umberto Boccioni (1882-1916) painters Carlo Carrà (1881-1966), Giacomo Balla (1871-1958), and Gino Severini (1883-1966) painter and composer Luigi Russolo (1885-1947) and architect Antonio Sant'Elia (1888-1916). Marinetti's original manifesto was followed by Futurist manifestoes on sculpture, painting, literature, architecture, and other fields written by other members of the movement. Marinetti also founded and edited a journal, Poesia (Poetry). The Futurists glorified violence and conflict and called for the destruction of cultural institutions such as museums and libraries. The original Futurist manifesto of 1909, written by Marinetti, exalted the beauty of the machine and the new technology of the automobile, with its speed, power, and movement. The goal of the Futurists was to discard the art of the past and to usher in a new age that rejected tradition and celebrated change, originality, and innovation in culture and society. Futurism was a short-lived artistic movement, founded in 1909 by the Italian writer Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (1876-1944).

This is the case in the work of Upendra Baxi, who has made a criticism of Western theorisations of law and crafted a fruitful encounter between the insights of Subaltern Studies and the theory of human rights.Fondazione e manifesto del futurismo (Futurist constitution and manifesto) is the founding manifesto of the Futurist movement, first published in the Paris newspaper Le Figaro on February 20, 1909. Sharing a preoccupation with those excluded from the ‘world order’ and the appeal to sensibility, Subaltern Studies have advanced some insights pointing at establishing a link between colonialism, human rights and suffering. Among them, the critiques of rationalism advanced by Oswald de Andrade and Luis Alberto Warat in Brasil and Argentina - where there is a possibility of integrating the emotions into human rights theory. However, in our culture there are a number of trends and positions that are relevant to the task of thinking human rights in a new light. The Third World can easily experience a form of ghost existence: We speak but are not heard.
