Domenico Battista

Born in 1946 in Triggiano, Italia. He lives and works in Geneva.

Domenico Battista began his career in the 1970s in Venezuela, around the optical art movement that transformed the perception of spaces and their uses. The artist creates paintings whose weaves break down, intersect, cut out spaces within the canvas or create wave-like moiré through saturation. The resulting art is underpinned by an intuitive structure, with rhythm deriving from improvisation.
