Artist Statement:
"Arthur Jacob tests the limits
of photography, deconstructing
reality in swirling patterns
and a spectrum of glowing
colors that render the known
world mysteriously new."
Ed McCormack, Managing
Editor, Gallery & Studio
Magazine, New York, NY
Sept./Oct., 2006
“Through the mastery of
technical means, Arthur Jacob
reinvents the living and
characterizes it;
demonstrating the reality
through warm colors . . .
inviting us to pure
participation of the extension
he exercises in his art.”
Emanuela Catalano, Dott.
Prof. Storica dell
‘ArteDocente di Storica dell
‘Arte e conservazione
dei Beni Cuturali,
Florence, Italy, 2008
About My Work
Harold Rosenberg defined the
Abstract Expressionist’s
canvas as an “arena to act
in.” My intent is to give the
observer the knowledge of what
the real life image is, and
then through abstraction and
reconstruction of that image,
invite the observer to act in
that arena; and to explore the
infinite possibilities that
each abstraction and
reconstruction presents. The
use of color, form and balance
reveal much about me as an
artist and person. Color
depicts emotions. Lines, that
are either gently wavy or
sharply spiked, become the
attitude in my work.
My new work is a departure
from my reconstruction
photographs of the past.
