Bianco e Nero
1968
Agostino Bonalumi's *Bianco e Nero* exemplifies the Italian artist's signature "Extroflession" technique, in which the canvas is pushed and pulled from behind to create sculptural, three-dimensional forms. The stark contrast of black and white emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow across the work's undulating surfaces, transforming the painting into a dynamic relief. The piece reflects Bonalumi's lifelong exploration of the boundary between painting and sculpture, inviting viewers to experience the canvas as a living, breathing object in space.
