Description

A vibrant and dynamic 3D silkscreen by celebrated New York pop artist James Rizzi, known for his joyful color palette, playful characters, and unique multi-layered constructions.
HIGH WIRE is an excellent example of Rizzi’s iconic “Urban Primitive” style, featuring humor, movement, and an energetic composition that reflects his creative peak in the early 1990s.

Rizzi’s signature 3D technique—carefully hand-cut and layered elements—adds sculptural depth and gives the work a lively, animated presence.
