(JAKE PLISSKEN) Jacob Gerard


Jacob Gerard is a true outsider artist with no formal training. His work is powerful, brilliant in creativity, and rich in humor. His colors, brightness, attention to details, emphasize a scale of production usually found in a well seasoned educated artist. In less than 2 years of painting exclusively he has amassed a small arsenal of paintings that would be considered a full career for many. Whether this is an attempt to never go back to construction or years of pent up creativity the current results will last a lifetime. At this moment in time all signs point to this being the beginning of a flourishing artistic career.

EXHIBITIONS:

Court Tree Collective is an art gallery committed to pushing boundaries in close collaboration with the artists it represents. Its program is rooted in original, thought-provoking work that resists easy categorization, rejecting the confines of traditional labels in favor of a distinct energy and point of view. More than a conventional gallery, it operates as a living, evolving space driven by instinct
and a shared creative momentum that challenges the norms of the art world.

Founded and run independently by Stephen Lipuma and Amy Ng, Court Tree Collective exists outside the influence of corporate structures and the often exclusionary traditions of the industry. Sustained through alternative means and guided by an artist-first ethos, the gallery reflects the lived experience of its founders, who continue to embrace risk as an essential part of their practice. Drawing from counterculture, heritage, pop, skateboarding, music, and everyday life, the gallery cultivates a hybrid sensibility, where outsider perspectives and formal training intersect to create something immediate, raw, and resonant.︎
