Charles Fazzino: An Internationally Renowned New York Artist and Undisputed Master of 3D Pop Art

Charles Fazzino is a New York artist of international renown, an undisputed master of 3D pop art. Born in 1955 in New York, he grew up in an artistic household with a sculptor father and a painter mother. Graduating from the New York School of Visual Arts, he developed an immediately recognizable style combining screen printing, layered planes, and vibrant colors.

From an early age, Charles Fazzino distinguished himself by his ability to look at the urban world, popular culture, and major social events with a playful eye. His works, which come to life through a hand-cutting and assembly technique, are now exhibited in more than 20 countries. His art is also collected by celebrities such as Paul McCartney, Rosie O'Donnell, George Bush, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, and Michael Jordan.

The Art of Charles Fazzino: A Universe of 3D Pop Art

What sets Charles Fazzino apart is his unique approach to 3D pop art. Each work is a dynamic representation of an urban life scene, constructed from multiple layers of hand-cut paper, creating a spectacular relief effect.

He began by illustrating the city of his birth, New York, incorporating its neighborhoods, inhabitants, yellow taxis, and iconic symbols. Through these works, he casts a tender yet ironic glance on everyday life, enriched with humorous details and cultural references.

The artist’s universe later expanded to other American and European cities, from Los Angeles to Paris, including Chicago, Miami, Tokyo, and Rome. He captures the essence of each city in an explosion of colors and shapes, always with the graphic strength that characterizes him.
