Description
ROMERO BRITTO (B. 1963)
On Top of the World
Print in Colors
10" x 10"
Romero Britto is a Brazilian artist whose distinct graphic style blends Pop Art with Cubist-like abstraction. His colorful illustrations and figurines of Disney characters, animals, and figures utilize patches of geometric patterns and texture rendered in a fractured perspective. â€Å“As an artist, I feel lucky to have been given the gift of creativity so that I may share my vision of a better world,â€Â he stated. â€Å“I will never forget what it was like to be poor and that is why it is so important to me that my work be accessible to all people.â€Â Born on October 6, 1963 in Recife, Brazil, Britto is self-taught and credits a trip to Paris in 1983 to his interest in Modern masters like Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. He has found commercial success through work with brand campaigns, including a commission for Absolut Vodka in 1989 that helped to launch his career. Brittoâ€â„¢s public installations can be found throughout the United States, Switzerland, and Brazil. He currently lives and works in Miami, FL where he owns the Britto Central Gallery.
