Born in Trastevere, Rome, Artistico passed through the youth categories of Mastrelli di Portonaccio and Lazio.[1] As a professional, first played in 1986 for Cynthia, and the following year he was acquired by L.R. Vicenza, where he was loaned to Roma (without entered the field), Frosinone and Perugia (both clubs at Serie C1) in he following seasons.[2]

In 1992, Aristico played for the first time in Serie B for Monza, helping the club in their campaign against relegation that season. He remained playing for second-level clubs in the following seasons, for Pescara and Ancona.[2] In 1996, he had another spell at Perugia, this time in Serie A, where he made just 3 appearances and scored one goal.[1] In 1996 he arrived at U.S. Salernitana, and in the following season Artistico was part of the Serie B champion squad in 1997–98,[3] a feat he would repeat in 2000–01, with Torino F.C.[4]

He also played for Crotone,[5] with quick loan spell at Napoli,[6] and for Pistoiese and Hellas Verona. In 2006, he ended his career with Latina in Serie C2, playing in just 6 matches.[7]
