Yannis Gaïtis (1923, 1984) was a Greek painter and sculptor best known for his recurring motif of identical, faceless human figures rendered in repetitive sequences, serving as a critique of modern society's conformity and dehumanization. He was a prominent member of the Paris School and spent much of his career in France, where he gained international recognition. His work blends pop art sensibilities with existential commentary, appearing in major auction houses including Christie's and Sotheby's.
