Giovanni Antonio Amadeo (c. 1447 – August 27 or 28, 1522) was an Italian early Renaissance sculptor[1].

He was born in Pavia. He decorated the funerary chapel of the condottiero Bartolomeo Colleoni in Bergamo, built shortly after 1470. He was also active for some years in the Certosa di Pavia during 1473-1476. He was then active in the decoration of the Cathedral in Milan. He is said to have collaborated with Donato Bramante in the facade for "Santa Maria presso San Satiro" in 1486.
