37 artworks

Mr Petto is more than a Vienna-based illustrator who learned painting from school. He is an artist who has resisted art fashion, choosing to retain a child's eye in his work. His colorful landscapes and modern abstract posters are not just paintings but stories that speak. He confronts the tragic events of his family history with humor, infusing his paintings with whimsy, irony, and most importantly, hope. Despite a lifetime of painting, his fame came later, a testament to his dedication. Many galleries have showcased his work; his paintings have even been featured as decorations in popular TV shows. You probably know "The Idiot" by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky. As Dostoevsky's protagonist, Mr Petto also has involuntary experience with psychiatry. The reason lies in his family history, which has profoundly influenced his art. His father was nine years old when the communists deported him to an extermination camp in Gakowa. Instincts allow you to mature into an artist.
