// Senza titolo by Agostino Bonalumi, created in 1990, is a bronze sculpture that reflects the artist's interest in form, tension, and the manipulation of materials to evoke a sense of movement. The piece features a rectangular shape with its surface distorted as if stretched and pulled from within, creating an illusion of elasticity despite the solid bronze medium. This tension between material and form highlights Bonalumi’s unique approach to three-dimensional art, where abstract shapes invite viewers to ponder the invisible forces acting upon them. This sculpture combines a polished finish with soft contours, lending it both a dynamic presence and an understated elegance, characteristic of Bonalumi's sculptural work.

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.
