1912
Oil on canvas
100.06 x 100.06 cm
Pinacoteca di Brera, Italy.
The artwork “Elasticity” is an oil on canvas painting that was created by Umberto Boccioni in 1912. Measuring 100.06 cm by 100.06 cm, this piece is a striking representation of the Futurism art movement, and it currently resides in the Palazzo Brera in Milan, Italy. Conceived and painted in Milan, the piece is an abstract work that exemplifies the dynamic and energetic qualities that are central to Futurist philosophy.
“Elasticity” is a dynamic composition that encapsulates the core principles of Futurism, emphasizing speed, movement, and technological advancement. The artwork conveys a sense of vigorous action and the interplay of forms in space, as if capturing multiple moments simultaneously. Vivid colors and sharp, angular lines fragment the space to create a sense of forward momentum and visual rhythm that seems to break the confines of traditional representation.
The painting is imbued with a sense of kinetic energy that suggests a radical departure from static art forms. The fragmented planes and shifting perspectives are characteristic of Boccioni’s works, as he sought to depict the interconnectedness of people and their environment in an era of rapid industrial change. The bold strokes and jarring angles heighten the sense of urgency and vibrancy, inviting viewers to contemplate the tumultuous relationship between humanity and the mechanized world.
Through “Elasticity”, Boccioni conveys the excitement and apprehension of the early twentieth century, as the world began to move at a pace previously unimaginable, forever changing the perception of time and space. The artwork remains a powerful testament to the avant-garde spirit that defined the Futurist movement and its belief in the transformative power of modernity.
The fine art subject is rebuilt stroke by stroke in oil, giving the finished canvas the depth expected of timeless oil painting wall decor.
This is a genuine hand painted oil painting, not a canvas print. Our painters match the palette of Elasticity by eye and build up the fine art forms in thin layers, which is what gives the finished fine art oil painting its luminosity.
Hang this fine art oil painting above a sofa, console, or bed to give an entryway an instant focal point. Its timeless palette works with both minimalist and period interiors, and the piece also makes a considered gift for housewarmings, weddings, and art lovers.
