James Rizzi (1950-2011) - Two’s Company, Three’s a Crowd

Title James Rizzi - Two’s Company, Three’s a Crowd - 3D Construction Silkscreen - Hand-signed & Dated - 1990 ⸻ Description A witty and highly collectible 3D construction by celebrated American pop artist James Rizzi (1950–2011). Titled “Two’s Company, Three’s a Crowd,” this work is a quintessential example of Rizzi’s fascination with the lively, densely populated atmosphere of New York City apartment life. Through humor and observation, Rizzi transforms an everyday urban scene into a playful and engaging visual narrative. The composition features a vibrant red brick façade with two windows, each revealing expressive characters and their own subtle story. The clever title enhances the narrative, adding Rizzi’s signature humor and charm. Executed using his renowned 3D construction technique, individually hand-cut elements are carefully layered to create depth and a refined shadow-box effect. The raised windows and figures bring a dynamic sense of movement and presence to the piece. Rizzi’s works are internationally recognized and widely collected, representing a distinctive and enduring voice in late 20th-century American pop art. ⸻ Details • Artist: James Rizzi • Title: Two’s Company, Three’s a Crowd • Technique: 3D Construction (Hand-cut silkscreen) • Year: 1990 • Hand-signed, titled, and dated in pencil • Image size: 5.1 × 7.6 cm • Frame size: 28.0 × 32.0 cm (approx.) ⸻ Condition Very good condition.
