Paul ROUSSO From USA ― Lives in CHARLOTTE ― b. 1958
Paul Rousso is an American contemporary artist, living and working in Charlotte, North Carolina. Rousso's works are described as 21st century Pop Art dealing in ephemera and artifacts of an analog culture that is quickly disappearing into the past.
Rousso's fascination with paper - currency, advertising, newspapers, magazines - its history and use, its rise and fall, is an emblematic theme reflected frequently in his compositions. Despite the complexity of Rousso's artistic output, Rousso's work is deliberately attainable to nearly every viewer, as he traces his inspiration to the paradoxes of the world around him.
Rousso designed the Tribeca loft of Robert De Niro and his work is held in private collections over North America, Europe, the Middle East and beyond, and numerous public projects of his appear across the United States.
