Vorticism
Vorticism, a British artistic movement from 1914 to 1915, was inspired by cubism and futurism, emphasising rugged, angular, and machine-like forms.
Vorticist painting merged the cubist approach of breaking reality into fragments with sharp, machine-inspired imagery from urban settings. Essentially, it served as a British counterpart to futurism, although with distinct beliefs. Notably, Lewis held strong opposition to the futurists.
