José Anísio Barbosa de Campos (6 March 1933 – 14 September 2019) was a Brazilian artist and racing driver. He is best known as an automobile designer, particularly as the designer of the DKW GT Malzoni and the earliest models of the Puma sports car.

Early years[edit]

Campos was born in São Paulo, SP to Dr. Paulo Barbosa de Campos Filho, and Maria Quinta Moraes Barbosa de Campos. Campos' father was a lawyer, judge, and university professor.[1] The senior Campos was president of the Instituto dos Advogados de São Paulo (São Paulo Lawyers Institute) from 1947 to 1950.[2] He was also interim mayor of São Paulo for the first two weeks of February, 1938.[3]

The family lived in the upscale Jardins neighbourhood of São Paulo, then moved to the Vila Mariana area to be closer to the children's school.[1]

Campos was essentially self-taught in drawing, painting, and much later, architecture.[4][5]Among his earliest artwork is a painting of his mother, done when he was thirteen years old. After discovering Cubism and Modernism, Campos recreated Leonardo DaVinci's fresco of the Last Supper in a work of geometric lines. He began drawing cars in school, and subscribed to many automobile magazines. Campos also used to go to court and watch lawyers as they argued cases.[1][4]

At sixteen years old Campos submitted a portfolio of his automotive drawings to General Motors in Detroit, hoping to secure a job offer. The drawings were returned, at GM's expense, with an offer to let him tour the styling studio if he ever came to the US.[6]

After completing his basic schooling, Campos had to decide whether to pursue either the "Classical" stream leading to a Law practice, or the "Scientific" stream leading to more technical fields, including architecture. He decided to take the entrance examination for architecture, but did not graduate.[1][4] During his mandatory military service, Campos augmented his income selling his artwork. After his discharge he established a studio, and by 21 was supporting himself by doing layout and final artwork for advertising agencies.[6][1]

As his interest in automobiles and auto racing grew, he began spending time at automotive workshops like Oficina Mecanica Losacco, a tuning and customizing shop. He also befriended many racing drivers and auto enthusiasts.[6][7]

Racing career[edit]

Campos' interest in cars led him to become a racing driver. His first race was in 1958, in a mountain climb race, on the old road between Santos and São Paulo, when he achieved second place with a Simca-Farina. He later sold the Simca to buy a Jaguar.[6][1] He sold the Jaguar to buy a DKW 58, which he then took racing.[7]

His career as a racing driver lasted from 1958 to 1972.[5] During this time he acquired the nicnkname "Barbosinha".[4][8]

In 1963, Luiz Antônio Greco, the head of the Willys racing team, invited Campos to drive for them. Campos posted a class win in his debut with the team.[7][9]

Campos was invited to drive for Vemag team by Jorge Letry.[9]

Asked by Jean-Jacques Pasteur to design a sportscar for Simca, the Xangô.[9]

Back to Lumimari, for Puma.[9]

Invited by Paolo Goulart to develop the Karmann-Ghia-Porsche and drive for Dacon.[9]

In 1968 Campos partnered with Miguel Crispim and Henrique Payá Martinez to develop a Formula Vee open wheeled racer called the AC Vê.[9]

For Puma he developed the two-seat racing barchetta called the AC.[9]

In 1969 he created a dune buggy inspired by Bruce Meyers' Manx. Campos' version was called the Tropi, and was later renamed the Kadron.[9]

That same year he designed the Puma GT 4R.[9]

In 1970 he drove in the "Torneio Nacional de Ford Corcel" ("National Ford Corcel Championship").[9]

In 1971 Campos was hired to lead Equipe Z, later renamed Equipe Holywood, which was fielding a Porsche 908/2, a Porsche 910, and two Formula Fords.[9]

In 1974 he was involved in development of the Maverick-Berta V8, built by Argentinian Oreste Berta, that raced until 1976, when the team disbanded.[9]

He was the designer of the limited production Ford Corcel II Hatchback model, based on the Belina II, commissioned by Ford dealer Souza Ramos that went to market in 1980.[9]

In 1982, Dacon unveiled the 928 minicar, designed by Campos.[9]

For the Projects d'Avant Garde group, Campos designed the Nick, Nick L and Chubby.[9]

IN 1986 he created the Scorpion for Engerauto, based on the F-1000, and one year later produced the Topazzio, based on the Pampa.[9]

As one of the partners of “Obvio! Autoveículos”, Campos had a hand in relaunching the 828 in 2001.[9]

Plans for a small sportscar to be called the 012 fell through.[9]

In 2010 Obvio! was acquired by “Cappadocia Funds Brasil”.[9]

In 1969, working with Puma Veículos e Motores, Campos built five copies of his AC prototype, using many Volkswagen parts. The car had a tubular chassis, enveloping bodywork inspired by the Group 7 Can-Am cars, a mid-mounted engine and a four-speed transaxle from the Puma 3. Two engines were used: the Volkswagen air-cooled engine, and a 2.0 L engine used in the Porsche 904. Raced until 1973, the cars only posted one outright win in 1972 at the 100 Milhas da Independência at Belo Horizonte.[10]

Design career[edit]

Oliveira Monarca at Carrocerias Monarca Ltda in the 1940s on Rua 13 de Maio, in the Bixiga neighborhood, in São Paulo.[4] 

The Monarca was handmade in 1954 or 1955 in the workshop of the Italian Oliviero Monarca, in the São Paulo neighborhood of Bixiga.

The young Toni Bianco and Anísio Campos were part of the carrozziere team — today considered legends of Brazilian motorsport.

Approximately ten cars were produced, with varying mechanics. The example present at the exhibition is, as far as we know, the only one remaining. It has a Volkswagen chassis, a sheet metal body and various components from a crashed Porsche 356 Speedster.

In 2010, the car was advertised in a newspaper. It was completely modified and no one (not even the seller) knew exactly what it was. The restoration was done based on two photos. Today, the last Monarch belongs to collector Alexandre Murad. [24][25]

Design career overlapped for several years while he was still racing cars.

Completed around 15 projects, including the Carcará sports car, the Puma DKW, the Topázio pickup truck, the first Brazilian buggy, Kadron Tropi, and the Dacon 828, which was the artist's favorite.[5]

Legacy[edit]

  • Campos was the subject of a documentary film titled "Homem Carro". Produced by his daughter, Raquel Valadares, the film was released in 2014.[5]
  • Campos was inducted into the 2015 Brazilian Autoesporte Hall of Fame during the Car of the Year celebration in 2014.[56][4]
  • Campos was the subject of a show that ran from November 2016 to January 2017 at the Museu da Casa Brasileira.[57]

Personal life[edit]

Campos pursued a variety of art forms throughout life, including painting, murals, sculpture, and furniture design.[4][58] In 1990 he created a painting patterned after Henri Matisse's La Danse, with stylized red open-wheeled racecars and yellow drivers' helmets substituted for the human figures in the Matisse work.[4]

Campos was a life-long fan of Carnival, and took up designing the elaborate floats used in the festival, as well as body-painting the muses, which influenced the subject of his canvases.[4]

He married three times.[7] One wife was Nanci Valadares.[7] At the time of his death, his partner was visual artist Anna Maria Martins Ferreira, also known as Anapana.[5][58] He had three children, including Raquel Valadares and Rodrigo Campos, and four grandchildren [7][5]
