Between 1972 and 1974, he worked as an actor in television advertisements for Campari and Nestle. Due to the military dictatorship in Brazil, in 1976 he moved to London where he worked as assistant to Rex Features International Photographic Press Agency. As freelance photographer, he followed pop music groups The Who, Tangerine Dream, Genesis, Deep Purple, and ZZ Top. In 1977 Brazilian magazine Geração Pop (Editora Abril) featured a series of pictures he made in London of The Rolling Stones. Soon after, between Europe and South America, he collaborated with a range of magazines, Interview, Playboy, Vogue, Sony Style, (1978–1990). In those years he joined The Image Bank, Getty Images (1980–2005) and was featured in photography art magazines Collector’s Photography U.S.A., Zoom France, Special Bresil, Zoom Italy, Newlook France, Newlook USA, and Playboy (Brazil). As Multimedia artist, since 1970, he participated in the exhibition New Media Art Multimedia 70/80 with the triptych «Video Oil» at the Armando Alvares Penteado Foundation, curated by Deysi Piccinini, also the exhibition The plot of Taste another look at the daily, at the Julio Plaza installation Electronic Amusement with the project «Video Hypnosis» at the Biennial Foundation, São Paulo, 1985[4] and The First Quadrienal de Fotografias, curated by Paulo Klein at Museu de Arte Moderna de São Paulo, 1985.[5] Duarte evolved his work adding new technologies and techniques with digital images, electrophotography, Xerox art[6] conceptualizing artistically the reading of DNA and also in the future, the writing of DNA.

The series is denominated by the artist as «Eletrografias e Fotografias com Fios de Cabelo para Futura Clonagem» (Electrophotographs and Photographs with Human Hair for Future Cloning), BioArt.[6][2] Duarte is inspired by the surrealist tradition and the originality of his work resides in the fantastic colors and in the richness of details that he uses. Irreverent, but never dramatic, with a playful irony, Duarte’s works are constantly moving, dancing, flying, stretching, as if they are to expand out of the frame. During the 1980s, he befriended the Italian artist and philosopher Joseph Pace, founder in Paris of Filtranisme, a neo-existential philosophical and artistic current, joining, in 1990, the enlarged «filtranistes» group. Due to a leak in the roof of his artist studio at Spring Street during a summer storm in the late 1990s, much of his work was destroyed; it is rare to find analog works before this period. He authenticates his works with a thumbprint. Duarte focuses his personal expression interpreting freely sacred and profane themes. From 2005 to 2015 he collaborated as curator for Brazil for the Florence Biennale and for the Padua Art Fair.
