Geraldo de Barros (1923 - 1998), a Brazilian painter, photographer and designer, was one of the exponents of the avant-garde in Brazilian art, a precursor of concrete art and a pioneer in abstract photography.
He also worked as a furniture designer from the mid-1950s (Unilabor) to the late 1980s (Hobjeto), deeply involved both with the function of design and with the social structure of the economy in which he worked.
