Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a minimalist, gray metal locker with a green, circular object attached to the front. The overall composition is simple and geometric, with the locker's rectangular shape and perforated ventilation pattern contrasting with the organic, shell-like form placed on it. The use of muted tones and industrial materials suggests a conceptual exploration of functionality, space, and the relationship between natural and manufactured elements. The artist's intention may be to challenge traditional perceptions of utilitarian objects and prompt the viewer to consider the interplay between the mundane and the unexpected. ...

Cooper Jacoby
Artist
Cooper Jacoby
B.1989, American

Cooper Jacoby’s diverse practice revolves around the notion of circulation, from postal process to acupuncture flow charts to honeycombs, and their respective predisposition to blockages and interruption. The artist, born in 1989 in the US, approaches his subject, looking for points of damage and rupture. His sculptures, mounted on walls or standing on their own, are made out of functional materials, such as silkscreens, printer inks and aluminium letter boxes, turned into dysfunctional, polished-looking intricate objects which, upon close examination, reveal faultiness and decay. Jacoby is interested in the ways materials deemed as “waste” are reevaluated, revalued and reused, examplified by his use of Fordite, a type of industrial waste which is made ornamental. In such a way, the subject and the materiality of his practice becomes indistinguishable. Intended to be neither beautiful nor ugly; neither useful nor useless, Jacoby’s works constitute puzzles of static movement at the intersection of the human and non-human, subtle in their complexity. ...

High Art
Paris, Arles

High Art was born in 2013 from an interest in bringing together distinct perspectives in advanced practices that are significant to current paradigms in contemporary art. Since its inception, High Art has functioned to provide an economic and logistic framework for artists by reexamining established modes of art commerce and production while attempting to account for an expanding field of art. The gallery has fostered not only the emergence of artists (Olga Balema, Max Hooper Schneider, Julien Creuzet, Matt Copson, Lucy Bull, Hun Kyu Kim, Mélanie Matranga) but also the emergence of new networks and economies (Paris Internationale, Shanaynay). In May of 2017, High Art inaugurated a new space in the heart of the 9th arrondissement of Paris. The space, which is located on the ground floor of an 19th century Haussmannian building, is notable for housing Georges Bizet while he wrote the opera “Carmen”. In December of 2020, High Art opened a second location in a 12th century chapel in the heart of Arles, France. ...
