My girlfriend took this picture but forgot the name of the artist... Trying to contact the gallery too but to no avail. Anyone an idea?

That's fantastic! It has the freedom of a drawing by Toulouse-Lautrec, but whoever it is I have never seen it before.
That bar(?) and the track lighting that are visible behind him are reflections, I assume? |

This is the best I could do to bring up the signature. Looks like Georges or Sergio Risa...Rosa..Rosi. I may be way off. Perhaps someone can decipher it.
