Thanos Tsigos (1914 -1965) studied in the Architecture Department of the National Technical University (1931-1936) and then worked as an architect until the end of the Thirties.

In 1947 Tsigos went to Brazil, and on the recommendation of Le Corbusier, worked on the studies and designs for Brasilia. The same year he travelled to Paris where he settled until 1960.

Thanos Tsigos abandoned architecture and devoted himself to painting and set design, indeed, even founding his own theater. He had solo exhibitions in France and in 1963 his last solo show at the Zygos gallery in Athens to which he had returned in 1961.
