Brazilian artist Duda Penteado is excited to announce the launch of his new book.

“Art can not be empty, because the history of humanity repeats itself and is frightening. It is up to the artist to manifest himself through his work, and bequeath an interpretation of his time, a message.”

Duda Penteado is a multimedia artist who has lived between the United States and Brazil for almost 20 years and works with performance, video, installations, murals, sculptures, paintings, and other visual practices. In recent years Duda has devoted much of his work on important issues of peace, globalization, diaspora, dual citizenship, and other geopolitical and social phenomena of the twenty-first century. This year, Duda returns to his hometown of São Paulo, for the launch of his new book on Wednesday, May 21 at 7p.m. at the Book Store Cultura.

I call myself an artist for humanity.  I paint about life, and the human being in the center of it as a part of the creation. The colors  and themes in  my  works  tell  a story in such a way as we color our lives with different paint and make different choices.  I want to invite the viewer to discover his story and take a journey into the universe of his own.  There are many ways in life, there are all the colors of the rainbow,  but we all look for happiness and we need to find  our universe in a personal harmony: The Peace Within.
