Biography
Domenica Regazzoni was born in Valsassina in 1953.
She started painting in the early 1970s when attending the Accademia di Brera in Milan.
In the early 1990s she abandoned figurative painting in favour of an informal abstraction. The more poetic songs of Mogol and Lucio Dalla inspired the exhibitions “Colore Incanto”(1996) and “Regazzoni & Dalla” (1998), in which her works sought a meeting point between painting, music and poetry, towards the intimate affinities that link colour and material, sound and word.
In 1997 she was among the artists selected for the Libero blu competition held by the Galleria Blu in Milan to mark its fortieth anniversary. Between 1997 and 2001 she held solo exhibitions in Tokyo, Japan, and numerous Italian cities, including Milan, at the Fondazione Stelline, Rome, at the Complesso del Vittoriano and Bologna in the former church of San Mattia.
Artworks
"In his works, Domenica Regazzoni establishes a dialogue with painting which becomes a lyrical and almost dreamy vision of the world but never detached from the sensitive"
Silvia Evangelisti (Bologna, 2001)

Critical Notes
"In the works of Domenica Regazzoni there is a common ground represented by the works that become material,
repudiating direct figuration in favor of informal symbolisms of felt emotional complicity"
Vittorio Sgarbi (Italiani artisti contemporanei, 2018)

"Domenica Regazzoni's work is an example of how fundamental an approach that I would like to define as "artisanal" in the noblest sense of the word still is for all the Arts"
Gillo Dorfles (Skira Paperbacks, 2015)
