26 FABIAN PEREZ NEW RELEASE If we take a step back however, we discover that although to each of us his work seems completely personal, we are part of a greater whole – a massive global phenomenon which has been recognised with a stream of accolades and awards over the years. Fabian’s work is owned by an extraordinary number of famous collectors ranging from Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola, Rihanna and Shakira, to significant figures on the world stage including Pope Francis. Last year alone, he received five major awards and was commissioned to paint the official state portrait of President Mauricio Macri of Argentina.
