Charles Fazzino, world acclaimed American pop artist, has created his own unique mix of the art form. The seeds of his inspiration came from artistic family roots and from Manhattan, the city that fired his youthful imagination during his formative early childhood years. His young and fertile creative mind was captivated by giant picture books depicting life in the late 20th century urban America. 3-D movies and pop-up storybooks further sparked his imagination. His works depict the remnants of childhood visions of yellow taxi cabs, the Statue of Liberty; storefronts decked with color and the heartthrob of life itself that is embodied by Manhattan! As a youth, Fazzino would take advantage of every opportunity to take the train into the city to absorb the color and excitement of the Village and Central Park. The late 1970's and early 1980's found him as a regular at the Washington Square Park Outdoor Art Festival in the Village. The diversity and strength of his work quickly escalated him to the national art circuit exhibiting at shows such as Ann Arbor Art Festival in Michigan, Miami's Coconut Grove Art Festival, and the Las Olas Museum of art Festival in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Today, the artist continues to show in international urban areas such as Paris, Frankfurt, Zurich, and Tokyo.
Fazzino's images are being sold to galleries and corporate clients throughout the world. His works also enhance and strengthen the personal collections of numerous celebrities such as Maria Shriver, Bobby Bonilla, Donald Trump, Brooke Shields, and Larry King, to name a few. All of the Fazzino images capture the energy, vibrance and depth that are life itself. They speak of colors applied with fun and humor and delivered with freshness, spontaneity, and originality. Fazzino's art offers unlimited appeal to people of all ages and from diverse cultural background as well. He has recently been referred to as "the Norman Rockwell of the Modern day art world." His works exhibit the rare ability to commingle a unique variety of creative ingredients. This mastery sets his works apart from any of his contemporaries and has skyrocketed Fazzino to international renown with the art circles of today's art world.
