A Serata is one of a series of events organised by the futurists.[1] These events combined artistic and nationalist political agendas with the intention of implementing change.[2]
The first serata
editThe first serata was held at Politeama Rossetti, Trieste, in 1910. Marinetti chose Triste because it was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Marinetti had already demonstrated his support for Guglielmo Oberdan, and had demonstrated the importance of Trieste for his irredentist campaign by declaring it "Our Beautiful Powder-Maga-zin".
