BIOGRAPHY

Marcos Monteiro, who has the stage name of Hô Monteiro, was born on October 15, 1964 in Porto Alegre/Rio Grande do Sul - Brazil, where he lives and works.

Hô Monteiro always had a great admiration for classical antiquity, Renaissance and Baroque. In this sense, Italy provides a visual aesthetic appeal, that with all the centuries of history and artistic legacy left, has become a place where he visited several times to do his research and capture images, that would later become drawings and paintings; Therefore, cities like Rome and Florence exercised the same fascination about this artist, such as on several other artists and philosophers of history, like Velazquez, Rubens, Stendhal and Goethe, who also went to Italy to live or study instigated by classical culture.
