António Moreira Antunes is a Portuguese comic book artist and caricaturist, born on April 12, 1953, in Vila Franca de Xira. His career as a caricaturist began in 1974, at the newspaper República, and in the same year, he started his long collaboration with the weekly magazine Expresso, founded in January 1973. In that magazine, he demonstrated his talent and graphic evolution, first in black and white in the main section, then in color on the last page of the supplement "A Revista", during the period in which he illustrated the column "Afetos", sharp chronicles by João Carreira Bom. Later, his work was featured on the front page of the main section, where he portrayed, in a unique way, one of the main events of the week. It was in an illustration for a chronicle by João Carreira Bom that António depicted Pope John Paul II with a condom on his nose (in 1992), in what was perhaps his most controversial work. In addition to caricatures of politicians or famous situations (such as the relationship between Mário Soares and Cavaco Silva), António has a series of remarkable "portraits" of some of the greatest names in areas such as literature or science, such as Camilo Castelo Branco, Eça de Queirós, Virgílio Ferreira, Umberto Eco, and Sigmund Freud. In addition to Expresso, António has had works published in various periodicals such as Vida Mundial, Diário de Notícias, A Capital (1976), Diário Popular, and Mundial (1996), and has also collaborated with RTP and the Lisbon City Council. He has several books published, which compile his works published in the press, especially those from Expresso. He has held several solo exhibitions in Portugal, such as the one commemorating his first twenty years as a caricaturist at Casino Estoril (1994), but also in Brazil, Germany, Spain, and France. He has also participated in many group shows, as well as working sessions with Asian caricaturists invited by UNESCO in Kuala Lumpur, Manila, and Cebu in 1989. He is considered the most reputable Portuguese caricaturist, having received, among other awards, the Grand Prize at the Salon International de Cartoon in Montreal, Canada (198
