【Description】

Experience the Joy of New York with a Pop Art Legend

Offered here is an iconic 3D construction by the celebrated American Pop Art master James Rizzi (1950–2011). Titled “SUGAR, BABY, COOKIE, HONEY,” this joyful work perfectly embodies Rizzi’s internationally loved philosophy of “Happy Art,” which continues to delight collectors across the globe.

The Artwork

The composition depicts a lively New York–style cityscape enclosed within a heart, symbolizing the affection, energy, and warmth of urban life. Two smiling, anthropomorphic faces flank the scene—an unmistakable and beloved Rizzi motif—celebrating human connection, optimism, and the playful spirit of the city.

The 3D Construction Technique

This is not a flat print, but a genuine 3D construction. Rizzi created depth by hand-cutting elements from two separate silkscreen prints and carefully layering them with foam spacers. As a result, the artwork comes alive with shifting shadows and dimensionality, changing subtly with the viewer’s angle—one of the hallmarks of Rizzi’s work.
