Why Is Kostas Spiropoulos Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Kostas Spiropoulos is a Greek painter and doctor. Since the 2000s he has become a leading figure in the pop art movement in Greece. Early years Professor and artist Kostas Spiropoulos was born and raised in Patras. Since his childhood he admired the famous painters and scientists, because their common characteristic is the lust for constant amelioration of the spirit and the soul, as they eternally seek for the decryption of the world. In his early artistic steps, he studied the works of the greatest teachers of art, Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci. He was also keen on byzantine art and was helping his teacher and byzantine iconographer in the production of paintings in churches in the city of Patras. He was indulged in byzantine art as it remains the container of the values and virtues of Ancient Greece that were later passed on to the Byzantine Empire.
