EVERTHING MUST GO!
Robertino’s art had been stored in his mother’s house on E. 123rd St. for over 50 years. But the house has been sold and it’s time to find new homes for the art. Everything must be sold and it will be priced to sell. Large or small, ink or pencil, a piece of Fatica-created art makes a great gift for yourself or your friends and family!
ROBERTINO FATICA – BIO
Robertino Fatica has been a lifelong resident of the Little Italy neighborhood. He attended Murray Hill School and Holy Rosary School. After elementary school, he went on to St. Edward High School in Lakewood, Ohio, and graduated in 1967.
The decade after graduating from St. Ed’s (1967-1977), was a very significant part of Fatica’s artistic life. He completed a three-year program at The Cooper School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio, receiving an associate’s degree. Following this, Fatica served in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Germany. Upon release from the Army, Fatica used the GI Bill to further his art education and enrolled in The Cleveland Institute of Art, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts. All of the art to be sold at the event was created during this decade.
