Antero Guerra Inácio

Antero Guerra was born in 1957, in a small village in central Portugal.

Growing up in a family of less substantial means, he started going out to work very young. But, he was also very young when he discovered that he had a strong vocation for visual arts. His first drawings date back to the time when he discovered paper and pencil, even before starting primary school!

In his youth, he immersed himself in photography, painting and cinema - super 8 and later, video.

He took part in dozens of exhibitions of painting and photography, both collective and individual. Nevertheless, everything he produced was always imbued with a sense of experimentation and on-going self-learning.
