Superficie Blu 1979

"Superficie Blu" (1979) is a minimalist work by Italian artist Enrico Castellani, known for his exploration of surface and texture in painting. The piece features a grid of indentations that disrupt the flatness of the blue canvas, inviting viewers to reconsider the relationship between the surface and the space it occupies. Castellani's work challenges traditional understandings of painting by focusing on the physicality of the medium. His signature style is characterized by the use of geometric forms and the manipulation of the canvas to create subtle variations in light and shadow, imbuing the seemingly simple forms with a sense of depth and dynamism.
