Boccioni: Recreating the Lost Sculptures

The destruction, in 1927, of a number of plaster sculptures by Futurist artist Umberto Boccioni represented a great loss for avant-garde art. Now, using a wealth of photographic source material and ground-breaking 3D printing techniques, artists Matt Smith and Anders Råden have recreated three of the artist’s iconic striding figures. This exciting and innovative display will enable visitors to ‘see’ these lost masterpieces for the first time.
