After publishing “Rime dell'Urbe e del suburbio” in 1908, he sent his book of lyrics “Procellarie” to Marinetti and immediately joined Futurism, sending the poem Apocalisse, published in an issue of Poesia. ‘It was not by chance that I adopted the combative pseudonym of Libero Altomare when I joined the Futurists, defying the ironic incomprehension of some of my self-styled friends of both sexes'. He met Marinetti and took part in the evening at the Mercadante in Naples in April 1910, in July he signed the Futurist Venice manifesto and on 11 January that of the Futurist playwrights [...] Although he formed a Futurist group in Rome Altomare abandoned Futurism in June 1915 announcing it in the Piccolo giornale d'Italia (P. Hulten, "Futurismo & Futurismi. Bompiani, 1986)
