Constantine Andreou’s work has been documented in monographs, exhibition catalogues, critiques, interviews, scholarly studies, films, and broadcasts from the 1950s onward. He also collaborated on books in which his drawings, prints, or other illustrations form part of the publication itself.
This developing bibliography gives verified titles in the language and script of the original edition. English translations in square brackets are editorial reading aids, not alternative published titles. Where a title page or colophon has not yet been located, this is stated explicitly.
