About the Item

Lady in red and lady in brown. 1935. Paper, watercolor, 35x25 cm Sitting women in summer dresses, mixed media on paper Adolfs Zardins (1890 08 II Riga, Latvia – 1967 07 II Jurmala, Latvia), painter. Only in 1990 his relatives give his artistic heritage to publicity. “I am 58, and in five Years my colors and lines will be genuinely perfect…” “I don’t obey anything expert myself and my time…” His works are full of classic themes (history, mythology, religion and erotic's) but interpretation is paradoxical, associative, allegoric and also subjective. Zardins in his works created so-called “individual mythology”. Exhibitions: 1931, 1933 and 1935 – group exhibitions of the Union of the Independent Artists; Memorial exhibitions: 1998 – Riga; 1999 – Germany (Veclara) 1999 – Moscow, Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. 2006 – Italy 2019 - In Bucharest, at the main building of the Titulescu Foundation

All reasonable offers will be considered. About the Artist: Itzchak Tarkay (Israeli, 1935–2012) was a painter known for his Post-Impressionist portraits done in watercolor and acrylic. Influenced by the work of both Henri Matisse and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Tarkay’s expressive, use of color lent a dream-like quality to his serigraphs, prints, and paintings. Born in 1935 in Subotica, Serbia, Tarkay and family settled in Israel after Allied forces freed them from a Nazi concentration camp during World War II. The artist went on to study at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem and later the Avni Institute of Art and Design in Tel Aviv. Later in life, Tarkay mentored younger Israeli artists, including Yaacov Agam and Yuval Wolfson...
