Domenico Bianchi

Domenico Bianchi is an Italian artist, who in the 1980’s, became one of the emerging figures of the La Scuola Romana, where he exhibited his work alongside Arte Povera artists such as Jannis Kounellis, Mario and Marisa Merz and Michelangelo Pistoletto, among others. Their artistic approaches have since influenced his studies of spatiality. Light has become a consistent element of his work, through the medium of wax, he uses repetition in the process of successive layering, in which he creates a predefined central motif, formed with lines and interlacing patterns. As a result of this process, Bianchi states “the shape of the artwork does not rely on ideal geometry, but an abstract project which allows itself to be determined by the technique.”
