One of the most original movements occured on 20th century, Russian Cubo-Futurism was founded by Mayakovsky, Khlebninkov and Kruchyonykh and were strongly influenced by revolucionary ideas.

My personal overview about this movement:
I really enjoyed a Brazilian Anthology of Russian Poetry translated by de Campos brothers into Portuguese.
I was enchated by Khlebninkov's experimentations and I decided, some day, to learn Russian to read him.
On this collection, there are some poems by Mayakovsky who, in my humble opinion, alongside with Ruben Darío and García Lorca, was on big 3 in Poetry on 20th century.
