Welcome

Sérgio Prata Garcia is a Brazilian artist who produces sculptures, frescoes paintings, icons, stained glass, murals, sacred art, drawings and printings. Prata is the creator of the 3 phase paintings, a contemporary procedure of painting in complete darkness and with ultraviolet lights. 

Prata had his break when he won the XV Brazilian Championship of Sand Sculptures organized by Air France in February 1981. 

The award gave him the opportunity to go to Paris and study at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts, the very same school in which Renoir, Ingres and Delacroix studied.

The Prata Art Studio is a place of sharing painting techniques and knowledge of art. 

Take a look at the available paintings for private collections.

 

Located near the bustling city of São Paulo, Prata´s art studio has became the heart of painting technique research for students and artists from all over the world.

 

Prata is in the process of writing an online Encyclopedia of Art which includes painting techniques, coursework and instructional videos.
