Born in 1980, Alexandra Battezzati is a contemporary French painter whose artistic talent flourishes in the sunny city of Nice, where she both lives and works. Her captivating art channels the raw beauty of nature, capturing its simplicity and powerful presence without embellishment in her paintings.
Battezzati's artistic journey took a decisive turn at Saint-Dominique primary school in Nice, where she encountered a mural by Fabio Rieti. This mural, depicting a palm tree silhouetted against a blue sky, left an indelible impression on her. The experience ignited her passion for art, becoming the catalyst that set her on a dedicated artistic path.
After studying the restoration of works of art and actively participating in the renovation of paintings at Agen Cathedral, Alexandra chose the path of artistic independence. Her early works featured pebble beaches set against Mediterranean blue backgrounds. Exhibiting in prominent locations such as Saint-Paul de Vence and Nice.
Alexandra Battezzati's artistic approach is characterized by a transparent and light architectural style. The sky takes a central role, and the minimalist foliage is composed of wispy or bold pops of color, resulting in dynamic compositions that can be both vertical and horizontal. This synthesis of classical painting tradition, surrealism, and Japanese influences defines her unique style.
