Shop for Forchino comic art figurines Forchino figurines are masterpieces of comic art. Guillermo Forchino creates sculptures that are akin to the world of comic strips. Wierd and funny pieces such as cars overloaded with baggage, bizarre characters of all shapes and forms. Guillermo Forchino Forchino started experimenting with various materials in 1980 at the Facultard de Bellas Artes of Rosario, Argentina, to find the right form for his three-dimensional works of art. From the end of the 1980’s, Forchino chose poly resins to create figures and scenes that resemble the world of comic strip and cartoon characters. They are typically unusual and humorous subjects such as a family leaving on vacation in an overloaded car with flat tires or a tired, old American pick-up truck from the 1950’s. He has used other modes of transportation such as boats, planes and motorcycles and has even used a bathtub for a military dictator. His characters are always handled with humor and finesse and given a soul. He has had regular expositions in France and in Argentina. Guillermo Forchino lives and works in Paris in his workshop two steps away from the Père Lachaise cemetery.

It comes wrapped in the newspaper “The Forchino Times” along with the autobiography of Forchino and pictures of his collection. A certificate of authenticity completes the package.
