Βorn at Pyrgos in Elia, Yannis Adamacos graduated from the School of Fine Arts in Athens (1978) and subsequently (1979) went to Paris, where he stayed for two years with a scholarship by the engraver Tassos.  He had his first solo exhibition in Athens (1978) and since then has presented his work in a number of one man and group shows both in Greece and abroad.   He taught design and colour at the Chalkis Painting Workshop and the Vakalo School of Art.  Setting off from a wild expressionism, his work moves in the field of transavantgarde.  He lives and works in Athens.
