Student of the school of the Nice Decorative Arts then from the School of Fine Arts of Paris, it is distinguished by a work where light, color and rhythm. As early as the 1960s, he affirms a singular style that leads him to be exposed in France and abroad, and to collaborate with large lithography workshops.

Henri Baviera belongs to a generation of artists for whom color is a major means of expression. His compositions, both in paint and engraving, are characterized by a visual dynamism and a search for harmony. The abstraction encounters the lyrical sensitivity: the forms unfold in space as musical partitions, giving its works a dimension both visual and rhythmic.
His work is influenced by the legacy of modern art, including Matisse and the artists of the Côte d'Azur, but it is primarily necessary by a personal language. Her lithographs and engravings are particularly recognized for the richness of their chromatism and their expressive power.
Throughout his career, Henri Baviera has participated in many exhibitions in France, Germany, Italy and Japan. His work is represented in public and private collections, confirming his place among the painters and contemporary engravers of the second half of the twentieth century.
