Biagio Battaglia was born in Comiso (RG) and has been living in Milan since 1961.
He completed his studies at the State Art Institute of Comiso, sculpture section.
After a brief period in sculpture artisan workshops, he worked in the field of architectural design as a technical draftsman in architectural studios, first in his hometown and then in Milan.
He went through all the stages of his career in the specific field, eventually founding his own studio "TEAM PROGETTO architecture and development," through which he provides technical consultancy for Design and Site Management for leading companies in Italy and abroad. This activity allows him to experiment with the synthesis between art and the rigorous technical aspects, enabling him to reconcile the balance between utopia and observing the world around him.
His passion and interest in art, which began at a very young age, has never been abandoned. Today, he dedicates himself entirely to painting to develop his own personal stylistic signature and to explore and experiment with new forms and languages expressed in contemporary art.
Paraphrasing Kant: It can be said that between pleasant, beautiful, and good, only what is for the sake of beauty is a disinterested and free pleasure because there is no interest of the senses or reason that compels approval.
Biagio Battaglia, in his personal way of being, seeks an ideal composition between the "beautiful" and what his sensitivity perceives from everyday life. His painting does not abstract from contemporary society and events close to the present, which are interpreted with his own personality and without reference to predefined styles.
Behind a current theme, strength and a willingness to express what is necessary to defend the cause of individual stylistic conception shines through Battaglia's painting.
In his work, there is a deep and filtered relationship with reality, which, however, is not reduced to a simple depiction of the truth.
Battaglia translates the compositional elements into a coordinated formal register, made of compositional spaces that enclose in the harmonious dimension of the form the figurative suggestions collected in contact with the real.
In his painting emerges a clean harmony of an imaginative reinvention translated into the precise scanning of spaces and the delicate juxtaposition of chromatic ranges. These are results that come from a long and assiduous meditation on a discourse that is never arabesque or decoration but meaningful communication of human testimony.
The chromatic composition and the narrative allegory are the hallmark of his way of working.
