| James Rizzi was
born in Brooklyn, New York and studied art at the
University of Florida (Gainesville) where he
began experimenting with painting, printmaking
and sculpting. His goal was to combine all three
techniques in his work, an aim finnally realized
in his 3-D constructions. Duplicate images
carefully cut out and attached, each one above
its counterpart, create richly textured editions
through a truly striking use of traditional
printmaking techniques. In his painting as well James
Rizzi often makes tre-dimentional
images, many of which incorporate moveable
magnetic elements. Since his 1974 debut in the
Brooklyn Museum´s, James Rizzi
has exhibited his work in many known galleries
and museums all over the world. He has been
chosen as the official artist of many
international sport events like the Olympic games
and world soccer turnaments. In the present
exhibition in ArtNetGallery
we exhibit two characteristic James Rizzi
pictures of busy life in the big city and four
pictures giving his vision of the classical works
of the old masters.
