Tela estrofelessa and Tempera // Agostino Bonalumi's Giallo (1979) is a striking mixed-media work that utilizes the technique of tela estroflessa (stretched canvas) combined with tempera. The monochromatic yellow surface is sculpted into rhythmic, three-dimensional forms, creating an interplay of light and shadow that shifts depending on the viewer's perspective. These protrusions and indentations lend a dynamic, architectural quality to the canvas, as if the artwork is emerging from within. Bonalumi’s use of a single color emphasizes the purity of form and depth, inviting contemplation of spatiality and the limits of two-dimensional surfaces in art.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
