From the wonderfully whimsical world of Guillermo Forchino, this collectible piece titled “The Motorbike” captures the artist’s signature humor and detail in comic sculpture.
Originally from Rosario, Argentina, Forchino began creating imaginative, character-driven pieces in the early 1980s, with formal training at the École des Beaux-Arts and Sorbonne University in Paris. He later directed the Juan B. Castagnino atelier of art restoration in Rosario, Argentina.

🧑🎨 Artist’s Description:
*"Abel Robino rode unperturbed on his magnificent motorcycle. He knew that women were crazy about him. They adored his beautiful tattoos, athletic physique, and alluring profile. Robino, however, had only eyes for his motorcycle.
The only thing that interested him in the entire world was to speed to Sturgis City for the legendary Black Hills Motor Classic.
After 10 years of uninterrupted riding, he had acquired both experience and self-confidence — but had also caught an unbearable irritation on his rear end. Still, like a modern-day knight, he rode on, expressionless."*
A perfect gift for motorcycle lovers, collectors of humorous art, or fans of Forchino’s playful world.
