Biography

Fikos is a painter and muralist from Greece.

At the age of 13, he started studying Byzantine painting in Athens. He invented “Contemporary Byzantine Painting” -a term and artistic style that is now being used by many artists globally- and combines his traditional artistic style with contemporary themes and art movements, such as Neo-muralism.

He has presented his work in 5 solo and many group exhibitions -in institutes such as the Benaki Museum (Athens), Archaeological Museum of Milos, Fiminco Foundation (Paris), Pera Museum (Istanbul), and the 1st Bienalle of Larnaka (Cyprus)- and has painted many murals all over the world. Among them is the largest mural in the history of Greek-Byzantine art (46m high), commission murals for the municipality of Versailles, and indoor murals at ETH Zurich University.

His focus is on the way traditional arts can serve the contemporary world.
