Panfuturism

From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Panfuturism (also known as Kverofuturism) is a Ukrainian avant-garde art movement developed by Mykhaylo Semenko, a Ukrainian poet.[1]

Overview[edit]

History[edit]

Panfuturism originated in Ukraine.[2][3] Mykhaylo Semenko developed it in 1914.[4]

Principles[edit]

Semenko outlined the following principles of Panfuturism in an essay, "What Panfuturism wants":[5]

  • Panfuturism "wants to be a scientific system which is attained by its being a system universal and synthetic."[5]
  • The goal of Panfuturism is to "abolish all 'isms' which is attained by neutralizing them...by regarding every single case as a private problem of the polyproblematic organism of art."[5]
  • Panfuturism is a "proletarian system of art."[5]
  • Panfuturism is an "organizational art."[5]
  • Panfuturism "is the whole art."[5]
  • Panfuturism "is at once Futurism, Cubism, Expressionism and Dadaism."[5]
