José Antonio Sistiaga

Painter and filmmaker

San Sebastian (Spain), 1932 - Saint-Jean-de-Luz (France), 2023

José Antonio Sistiaga is a painter, illustrator and filmmaker in one. His interdisciplinary process has given him space to constantly renovate his artistic language in the field of abstraction. Influenced precisely by the founder of that movement, Wassily Kandinsky and, later, by the ‘informal’ trends of the 50s, the artist progressively turns towards compositions where form takes the back seat, leaving the limelight for the language of colour, light and movement.
