If you threw Cubism, Suprematism, Constructivism, and Bauhaus into a giant cauldron, tossed in a 36-colour pack of crayons, and whispered “Adobe Illustrator” fifty times under a full moon… you might end up with something that looks like a piece by Antony Squizzato. But the real recipe? Years of design grit as a creative director at Periscope, the digital agency he co-founded in 1999, followed by a bold leap into the art world. Since 2015, his work’s been jet-setting across international exhibitions and acquired into private collections everywhere.

Squizzato’s art is like geometry with a personality. It’s abstract, minimalist, and full of punchy colours that practically high-five your eyeballs. His work draws on all the big art movements from Constructivism, Suprematism, Bauhaus, Cubism, to a dash of Pop Art. He has created a unique style he dubs “the new constructivism”.

He mostly paints with acrylics, creating bold shapes and colour explosions that somehow make order out of chaos. And when he’s not playing with grids and colours, he’s channeling his inner Brutalist architect. His Concrete Utopia series pays tribute to those moody, massive post-war buildings. Here, Squizzato deep dives into the harsh beauty of Brutalist architecture that echo the raw, monolithic spirit of post-war design and urban minimalism.
