Sumario:The poetics of the aerial went through the history of Italian futurism. In 1909, the eleventh point of his manifesto and foundation referred to the airplane as an essential machine for understanding that life and art should be submitted to a world in permanent transformation. The aerial and its implications composed proclamations and manifestos which determined the literary and artistic evolution of the heroic period. In the 1930s, when futurism was planning its survival in the complex social and political context of Italy, aeropainting became its official line. A profile that bifurcated into two complementary tendencies from that very moment: one devoted to an organic practice of the aerial gaze variables and the other to a representational policy which went beyond the aerial to penetrate the transcendent. With the disappearance of the lines of distinction between aesthetics and politics, the aerial theme acquired the function of the regime’s propaganda. It was the celebration of the war-fest that restored the interventionist rhetoric of the First World War and which, after a period of demonstrations of little plastic interest, ended abruptly with the death of Futurism, coinciding with the new historical cycle that began in Italy.
