Yannis Gaitis

Beloved Greek Artist YANNIS GAITIS emerged from a war-torn country in the 1950`s to rally Humans EVERYWHERE to revolt against the evil zombie-rulers of uniformity, bureaucracy, and sterile mass conditioning. GAITIS broadcast a powerful message through his faceless male figures in hats a theme that commandeers so many of his best-known Works. These vaguely threatening forms are also lifeless depressed...oppressed, they are outwardly dressed in the style of the times, shackled by the very chains YANNIS strove to break! Timeframe Early 20th Century, just after WWII: Sporting a dynamic Moustache that apparently had a personality of its own, unflappable Greek Artist YANNIS GAITIS also created a series of Original Artworks that revolutionized a disaffected generation and challenged a brow-beaten society. Rising out of the Phoenix Ashes of Post-Occupation Athens, (at the hands of both the Turks and the Nazis), YANNIS GAITIS sounded yet another Battle Cry to shatter the silent capitulation of his beloved countrymen to the zombie-rulers of uniformity, bureaucracy, and sterile mass conditioning. Speaking to humans EVERYWHERE around the world, GAITIS broadcast a powerful message through his faceless male figures in hats a theme that commandeers so many of his best-known Works. These vaguely threatening forms are also lifeless depressed...oppressed, they are outwardly dressed in the style of the times, shackled by the very chains YANNIS strove to break! The Creations of YANNIS GAITIS are to this day some of the most COLLECTABLE masterpieces existing in the Art World!
