Antoniadis Yannis

He studied sculpture at the School of Fine Arts under Michalis Tombros (1955-1960) and architecture in Florence (1961-1963). With a scholarship from the State Scholarships Foundation he also studied folk architecture and sculpture in Greece and then, until 1967, he worked on restorations of ancient and Byzantine monuments.

His work includes architectural sculptures, the result of his collaboration with architects, public monuments and freely inspired compositions, while his style is shaped according to the destination of his works. Thus, in architectural compositions abstract decorative motifs dominate, in public monuments he sometimes remains a realist and sometimes combines geometric with representational elements, while in free compositions he mainly prefers realistic rendering, with some generalizations.
