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 Spatialism?
Spatialism is an art movement that originated in Italy in 1947, founded by Lucio Fontana with the intention of synthesizing sound, color, movement, and space into a new form of art. The movement's central ideas were outlined in Fontana's first manifesto, published in 1947, where he introduced the concept of spatial art to capture the spirit of the post-war era. His ideas were further developed in five subsequent manifestos. Although Fontana's ideas were sometimes considered vague, his influence was significant, as he was one of the first European artists to emphasize art as a performance and gesture.
