Carlo Battaglia was an Italian contemporary artist who was influenced by Rothko. In 1970, he exhibited his series, Maree (tides) in the 35th Venice Biennale. This theme would become prominent in the work he made throughout his life. I really like how his color schemes are different from what we would expect, but does not distort our perception of the landscape. Also, his mark is unique and effective, and I want to incorporate it into my own work.
