>>5455148>>5455177I mentioned it before, but the aeropittura / Italian airplane futurism of that era was very cool, imagine Ace Combat like this hehe. Here is some inspirational art from Tullio Crali.
Top left and bottom left are both 1939, City Nosedive (Incuneandosi nell’abitato) and Cityscape; the right side picture is from 1970 Cielo in Acrobazia (Sky Acrobatics).
I think it illustrates how ways of seeing and artistic aesthetic appreciation is to a great extent technologically determined, ie architecture/perspective foreshortening and the Renaissance; camera / motion cinematography and cubism etc; consumer culture, retail distribution technology to pop art Warhol; and whatever Stable Diffusion and TikTok is doing or will do to our consciousness today.
