Biography: Kobalt, born in Paris in 1970, embodies the path of a polymath artist whose creativity has unfolded from electronic music to contemporary graphic art. Coming from a family where art was already present thanks to his father, a draftsman, Kobalt discovered very young his first passion: music production. This passion guided him in his youth, and his early talents led him to take a bold decision: invest the money intended to fund his higher education to invest it in creating his first album. Distributed by EMI, the album did not meet the expected success, but it marked the beginning of a rich artistic career full of experimentation. Parallel to his musical career, Kobalt joined the advertising world as a copywriter for the iconic Playboy magazine. For many years, he put his creativity at the service of the publication, creating and producing the magazine’s advertising campaigns. The turning point in his career came in 2005 when he became a cameraman, exploring a new facet of the visual world. In 2007, he discovered a passion for photography, adding another artistic string to his bow. In 2010, he successfully founded his own photo agency, highlighting his entrepreneurial spirit. In 2017, Kobalt made a radical choice to sell his agency to fully embrace graphic art, influenced by his son, who became a major figure in world street art. A pioneer of computer-assisted artistic creation, Kobalt stands out with more than 3000 works sold in galleries and online to date. His artistic approach is marked by bold use of humor, provocation and anachronisms, with a particular penchant for repurposing magazine covers, a style that makes him instantly recognizable. Despite the digital era, Kobalt has chosen to stay off social media, preserving a certain privacy. Today, he uses all available digital tools to give life to his creations, continuing to push the boundaries of artistic expression with a subtle blend of inspiration, innovation and humor.
