Focus on this artwork and explain the Boccioni's Interpretation.
Boccioni proclaimed his intention to “open the figure like a window and include it in the milieu in which it lives.” He also stated in his manifesto his desire to “proclaim the absolute and complete abolition of finite lines and the contained statue.” The chaotic and twisting nature of the work may be meant to embody dynamism and is reminiscent of Boccioni’s painting Dynamism of a Football Player (Italian: Dinanismo di un foot baller) produced in the same year. Dynamism, an emergent theme in futurist art, is best explained by Boccioni in the "Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting" (1910), written with the aid of other leading futurists:“All things move, all things run.  A profile is never motionless before our eyes, but it constantly appears and disappears.  On account of the persistency of an image on the retina, moving objects constantly multiply themselves; their form changes, like rapid vibrations, in their mad career. Thus a running horse has not four legs, but twenty, and their movements are triangular.” --Umberto Boccioni, "Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting" (1910)It also been suggested that the base the bottle rests on is not any part of a machine, but rather the bottle is seen blending into its natural setting, perhaps it is resting on a table(?). The practice of isolating an individual object was seen as ridiculous and non-representational according to futurists. Umberto Boccioni explained his vision for the piece in the preface of the catalogue for the First Exhibit of Futurist Sculpture in Paris (1913) by stressing the need for “the fusion of the environment with the object” in order to “make the figure live in its environment without making it a slave to a supporting base.” Boccioni argued that things do not simply exist in isolation, but obtain their most fundamental properties from their surroundings:“Our bodies penetrate the sofas upon which we sit, and the sofas penetrate our bodies. The motor bus rushes into the houses which it passes, and in their turn the houses throw themselves upon the motor bus and are blended with it.” -- Umberto Boccioni, "Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting" (1910)
