Vanguarda futurista e urbano hoje: vetores para a criação em design têxtil

Abstract

The present monograph text and academic research regard the creation in digital textile design for menswear having as a reference base the Italian Futurism artistic production, which arose in the first decades of the XX century, being put into associative dialogue with current urbanity characteristics. The study is constructed before conceptual analysis of each referential element, seeking a product that beholds the proposed dialogue both visual and discursively, assigning it with unique characteristics for the field of investigation. The text is developed within the following moments: explanation on the Futurism and the cultural manifestations in the current urban environment – these being, the “pichação”, the grafitti and the spatial bricolage –; and methodological elaboration, printing creation and considerations on the generated aesthetical attributes. The result constitutes a set of eight prints, divided amongst four thematic lines, of direct relation to its final application on clothing.
