Antonio Peticov (born July 2, 1946) is a Brazilian painter, designer, sculptor, and engraver.[1][2]
Self-taught,[3][4] Peticov's approach is based on systematic personal research in the history of art and its integration into avant-garde artistic movements in the second half of the 1960s. He also specialized in sacred geometry and the golden ratio, giving his work a strong mathematical character.[1]
In 1967, together with artists Aldir Mendes de Souza and Gilberto Salvador, he founded the group Vanguarda Jovem no Arena, participating in several exhibitions.[5] During the same period, he began his involvement with the Tropicália movement.[2]
He was president of the cooperative of Visual Artists of Brazil between 2003 and 2007,[6] and is a member of the Lewis Carroll Society of North America. He founded and directed the Núcleo de Arte Contemporânea (NAC) in São Paulo, between 1999 and 2006. In 2016, at the age of 70, he opened the Antonio Peticov Institute of Art and Culture.[7]
