Fazzolari's exhibitions often include a perfume developed alongside a body of works that include painting and sculpture.
Recent exhibitions include Feature, Inc. in New York, Michael Kohn Gallery, and Jancar Jones Gallery in Los Angeles. His work has been included in shows at the M.H. de Young Museum in San Francisco and the Katonah Museum of Art in New York. Fazzolari's work received a "Best of 2013" mention in Bruce Hainley's Top Ten for Artforum. In addition, he has received reviews in Artforum, Art in America, the New Yorker, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the New York Times, among others. He was a resident at the Headlands Center for the Arts in 2014 and has received awards from Artadia and the International Artisan Fragrance Salon. He was a finalist for the 2010 SECA award and for the 2014 Artisan Art and Olfaction Award. Fazzolari teaches in the graduate program at the California College of the Arts (CCA). …
