(born February 17, 1963), also known by his initials, MJ, is an American former professional basketball player. He played 15 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA) for the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards. His biography on the official NBA website states: By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. Jordan was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation and was considered instrumental in popularizing the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s. He is currently the principal owner and chairman of the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets. Jordan played three seasons for coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina. As a freshman, he was a member of the Tar Heels’ national championship team in 1982. Jordan joined the Bulls in 1984 as the third overall draft pick. He quickly emerged as a league star and entertained crowds with his prolific scoring. His leaping ability, demonstrated by performing slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk contests, earned him the nicknames Air Jordan and His Airness. He also gained a reputation for being one of the best defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he won his first NBA championship with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and 1993, securing a “three-peat”. Jordan’s individual accolades and accomplishments include six NBA Finals Most Valuable Player (MVP) Awards, ten scoring titles (both all-time records), five MVP Awards, ten All-NBA First Team designations, nine All-Defensive First Team honors, fourteen NBA All-Star Game appearances, three All-Star Game MVP Awards, three steals titles, and the 1988 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award. He holds the NBA records for highest career regular season scoring average (30.12 points per game) and highest career playoff scoring average (33.45 points per game). In 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century by ESPN, and was second to Babe Ruth on the Associated Press’s list of athletes of the century. Jordan is a two-time inductee into the Basketball Hall of Fame, having been enshrined in 2009 for his individual career, and again in 2010 as part of the group induction of the 1992 United States men’s Olympic basketball team (“The Dream Team”). He became a member of the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2015. Jordan is also known for his product endorsements. He fueled the success of Nike’s Air Jordan sneakers, which were introduced in 1985 and remain popular today. Jordan also starred as himself in the 1996 film Space Jam. In 2006, he became part-owner and head of basketball operations for the Charlotte Bobcats; he bought a controlling interest in 2010. In 2014, Jordan became the first billionaire player in NBA history. Is the most popular 3-D artist in the world today. His artwork can be found in the private collections of Rosie O’Donnell, Michael Eisner, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Roger Clemens, Brooke Shields, and many internationally renowned figures. He is one of the most popular and highly-collected pop artists of all time. Fazzino was born in 1955, in Westchester County, New York. His mother was an artist and his father was a high fashion shoe designer. He was fascinated at a very early age with pop-up children’s books and 3-D movies. Fazzino debut in the art world came at age 15, when a collection of his pen-and-ink drawings attracted much attention at a 1973 exhibit in Bedford Hills, New York. Charles enrolled in the noted New York City School of Visual Arts to hone his skills and sharpen the unique style of whimsy and fantasy that has marked his doodles from the beginning. He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1977. He also studied at the Parsons School of Design. As the creator of limited edition fine art silkscreen serigraphs, he is best known for his use of vibrant colors, exceptional detail and brilliant storytelling. The creation of Fazzino’s works is an elaborate process from beginning to end that starts with extensive research into the subject. The work is then drawn, printed, hand-cut piece by piece and finally constructed painstakingly. And though each work of art becomes a limited edition serigraph, or mixed media lithograph, each piece is raised, cut or folded differently to become 3-Dimensional. Finally, every piece is then finished differently with acrylic and glitter paint. Thus, no two images are exactly alike. During his more-than-thirty years as a pop artist, he has inserted his unique, detailed, vibrant, and three-dimensional style of artwork into the very fabric of popular culture. Fazzinos artworks are exhibited in hundreds of museums and galleries in more than twenty different countries. He has received many private and important commissions and has been selected as the official artist for festivals and events all over the world. Charles is often referred to as a pop culture historian because of the breadth of his work and the way it touches his collectors and captures the best parts of their contemporary lives. His legacy will mark him as part of the next generation of famous pop artists as he follows the paths originally forged by pop art pioneers such as Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Red Grooms, and Roy Lichtenstein. Charles Fazzino has received numerous awards. His work has been represented in over 600 art galleries worldwide. In addition, charity work with organizations such as Rosie O’Donnell’s The For All Kids Foundation, The Muscular Dystrophy Association, and the Habitat for Humanity have added to Fazzino’s endless resume of achievements.
