Yuri Catania
visual artist
Yuri Catania (Milan, 1975) is an Italian-Swiss visual artist. He lives and works in Rovio, Val Mara, in the Swiss canton of Ticino. He makes ephemeral, participatory urban installations, as well as painting and sculpture: the works begin with digital tools and are completed by hand, and are made to deteriorate and disappear. He has exhibited at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, the Centro Culturale Candiani in Venice and the Erarta Museum in St Petersburg.
