The exhibition addresses the pivotal role played by speed in modern life: from art to architecture and urbanism to graphics and design to economics to the material culture of the eras of industry and information.


It marks the centenary of the foundation of the Italian Futurist movement and is curated by Jeffrey T. Schnapp, Stanford Humanities Lab.
