It is the first major Futurist show in the UK in 30 years and features 18 works from a landmark 1912 exhibition that toured Europe.

The highlight will be two triptychs by Umberto Boccioni, arguably the group's most famous member.

Vicente Todolí, director of the Tate Modern, said: "Umberto Boccioni was the most important artist of the Futurist movement and the triptychs mark a pivotal moment in Futurism."

The exhibition will bring the works of art together for the first time in the UK and only the third time in their history.

Futurism began 100 years ago as a response to modern city life, breaking with old traditions and celebrating technology and industry.

The show includes Gino Severini's The Dance of the Pan Pan at the Monico, right, considered revolutionary in its attempt to create what the artist called "a uniquely musical picture".

The exhibition runs until 20 September.
