Colbert is known for his multidisciplinary approach, creating a “World of Art” working across sculpture, painting, clothing and performance to create a unique contemporary voice. Described by Andre Leon Talley as “the Godson of Andy Warhol.” Philip Colbert’s pop language forms an engaging dialogue with the contemporary post pop art movement. Colbert’s paintings cross high art themes from old master paintings and contemporary art theory with everyday symbols of mass contemporary culture, all narrated through the eyes of Colbert’s cartoon lobster alter ego. His work reflects today’s image saturated society, which Colbert refers to as ‘hyper-pop realism’ and constructs his mega-pop world.
Colbert’s work has been championed by internationally acclaimed art dealer Charles Saatchi, who presented the artist’s seminal NEW PAINTINGS show at Saatchi Gallery in 2017 showing Colbert’s transition into epic large-scale works on canvas, which has led to a series of Museum shows worldwide. The director of the Saatchi Gallery commented: ‘Colbert’s works are energetic and vibrant examples of contemporary art that illustrate the saturation of art history and pop culture in society.’”.
