Décio Pignatari (August 20, 1927 – December 2, 2012) was a Brazilian poet, essayist and translator.[1]
Born in Jundiaí in 1927, Pignatari began conducting experiments with poetic language, incorporating visuals elements and the fragmentation of words in the 1950s. Such verbal adventures culminated in concretism, aesthetic movement that he co-founded with Augusto and Haroldo de Campos, with whom he edited the journals Noigandres and Invention and published the Theory of Concret Poetry (1965).
As a theorist of communication, Pignatari translated works of Marshall McLuhan and published the essay Information, Language and Communication (1968).[1] His poetic work can also be read in Poesia Pois é Poesia (Poetry because it's Poetry) (1977).[1]

Quotes by Décio Pignatari (?)

“Há uma estátua afogada. . ." (Em câmara lenta! -- disse)
"Existe uma está-
tua afogada e um poeta feliz(ardo
em louros!) Como os lamento e
como os desconheço!
Choremos por ambos.”
― Décio Pignatari, O Carrossel
