Donato Nitti

A famous statement by the renowned Wassily Kandinsky stated that the artist was a child of their time, but could neither become its pupil nor its darling. The idea of not anchoring oneself exclusively to the present and the reality one lives in is visible in the works of Donato Nitti, a lawyer, poet, writer, and self-taught artist, currently one of the most promising figures on the contemporary scene thanks to his works depicting human figures portrayed with great sensitivity and delicacy. The artist's extensive culture has made possible the creation of "Satyricon" and "Liquid Time," watercolors characterized by an intense, intimate, and mysterious atmosphere that makes these two artworks truly unique. The subject of "Satyricon" is freely inspired by the love triangle described in Petronius' Satyricon.
