“The Pan Pan at the Monico,” created by Gino Severini in 1959, is an oil on canvas painting belonging to the Futurism art movement. Measuring 400 by 280 cm, this genre painting resides in the Georges Pompidou Center in Paris, France.
The artwork showcases an energetic and dynamic scene, characteristic of the Futurist movement. The painting employs a vibrant color palette and a multitude of fragmented forms to depict dancers and patrons enjoying a lively social gathering. The use of geometric shapes and overlapping patterns creates a sense of motion and excitement, encapsulating the bustling atmosphere of the venue. The composition is dense with figures, each rendered in angular, abstract shapes, which contribute to the rhythmic and pulsating effect of the ensemble.
