Pasqualino Cangiullo (1900 - 1975) is known as his older brother Francesco Cangiullo, one of the best-known exponents of Futurism. He was a poet, also a journalist and a Futurist graphic designer. Pasqualino Cangiullo joined the Futurists through his brother Francesco at the age of 13, which earned him the nickname "Pasqualino thirteen years old". His first poem appeared in the magazine “Vela Latina” in 1916, after which he worked as a designer and journalist for various futurist newspapers, which - such as L'Italia futurista - also published many of his paroliberi (words freed from typographical shackles) texts. In 1918 he exhibited together with his brother in Rome and in 1919 in Milan at the Grande Esposizioni Nazionale Futurista, which also achieved personal success. An exhibition in Ravenna followed in 1921, which he conceived together with his brother Gerardo Dottori, Virgilio Marchi and Ivo Pannaggi. At the end of the 1920s Pasqualino abandoned his artistic activity and worked in the shipyards of Naples.
