PIERO DORAZIO
Piero Dorazio (Rome 1927-2005 Perugia) was an Italian artist. In 1945, together with other artists, he founded the Ariete group and then the Social Art Group. A few years later he is in America where he gets in touch with artists such as De Kooning, Rotkho, Pollock and Barney Newman. He also meets Hans Richter, a friendship that will last a lifetime: his movies about abstract rhythms greatly influence his artistic style, far from both Informal and even Gestural Expressionism.
