Racing car
Luigi Russolo Β· 1913
Why it's great
A racing car turns into red and blue arrows that point in one direction, as if speed itself had a color. Luigi Russolo, a Futurist who was also a musician and invented noise machines, painted this in 1913.

Luigi Russolo was an Italian Futurist painter and composer, born in Portogruaro in 1885. He painted pictures of speed and light and invented the 'intonarumori', noise-making machines that played the sounds of the modern city. He died in Laveno-Mombello in 1947.
