Rich Jacobs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rich Jacobs (born 1972) is an internationally acclaimed artist who has exhibited throughout the United States, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. He is also the curator of Move, an ongoing series of group art exhibitions that originally started as a homemade art / music 'zine and record label in the early 1990s.

Inspired by graffiti, psychedelic and folk art, Rich's raw, colorful work frequently appears on a broad range of materials such as magazines, books, CD and LP covers, footwear, apparel (including parkas, skirts and dresses), skateboards, buildings, pillows and much more. When he's not drawing or painting, Rich enjoys spicy food, minimalism and listening to experimental music. A frequent flyer, he currently lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

"Listen with your eyes," advises Rich, as a possible approach to life on planet Earth. "...and give birth to a burrito-sized manatee for free."
