DOMENICO BIANCHI 

Domenico Bianchi (born in 1955 in Sgurgola) is an Italian artist currenlty living and working in Rome.

​

After attending the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, his career started in 1977 with his first solo show at Ugo Ferranti in New York. In the 80s, he gained recognition as an emerging artist of the so-called La Nuova Scuola Romana. In the late 1980s he started using polychrome plaster in addition to wax as a pictorial surface. The circle, a symbol of perfection and balance, became a constant and recurring element in his artistic language.
