Carlo Carrà’s best known work was The Funeral of the Anarchist Galli, painted in 1911. In the 1912 catalogue for the Futurists’ first Parisian exhibition Umberto Boccioni remarked “the sheaves of lines corresponding to all the conflicting forces, following the general law of violence” which he labeled force lines encapsulating the Futurist idea of physical transcendentalism. Mark Antliff has suggested that this futurist aesthetic was “designed to involve the spectator in the very politics that led to Italy’s intervention in World War I and, ultimately, to the rise of Fascism in Italy”. The art historian Giovanni Lista has identified this aesthetic as first appearing in the anarcho-syndicalist current, where Marinetti encountered the Sorelian “myths of action and violence.”
