Grabato Dias — the other name
António Quadros (1923-1993) was a thinker and creator of profound concerns, whose life was a constant dialogue with the mystery of the universe. Philosopher, writer, and artist, Quadros dedicated himself to exploring the fundamental issues of human existence, combining reason, sensitivity, and intuition. Under the heteronym Grabato Dias, he revealed a more introspective and poetic facet, translating into words what lies beyond the visible. Between philosophical contemplation and artistic expression, António Quadros was a soul that ceaselessly sought the transcendent, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire those who, like him, seek truth and essence.Dias engraving, a name he used to express creative freedom without the burden of legacy.
His work is an inner journey — and at the same time, a profound affirmation of the value of the spirit in a world that often forgets it.
