Itzchak Tarkay Figurative Paintings
Israeli, 1935-2012
Itzchak Tarkay (1935 – June 3, 2012) was an Israeli artist. Tarkay was born in 1935 in Subotica, on the Yugoslav-Hungarian border. In 1944, Tarkay and his family were sent to the Mauthausen, a Nazi concentration camp, until Allied liberation freed them a year later. In 1949, his family emigrated to Israel, living in a Kibbutz for several years. Tarkay attended the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design from 1951, and graduated from the Avni Institue of Art and Design in 1956.
Tarkay's art is influenced by French Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, particularly Matise and Toulouse-Lautrec. His work was exhibited at the International Art Expo in New York in 1986 and 1987. He has been the subject of three books, published by Dr. Israel Perry. Perry Art Gallery And Park West Gallery, his dealer. His art is focussed on almost dream images of elegant women in classical scenes which draw you into an imaginary world.
Few realize that Tarkay's early works were done by him personally to completion, but his later works were drawn by him and then colored in by helping artists on staff. This increased production, but that additional inventory reduced value of his total body of work. Today, the most important works by Tarkay are those that were done by his hand without assistance from others. Few dealers recognize this and many of Tarkay's pieces are not sorted out to distinguish his works from the works done by helper assistants to Tarkay. The value of "original" Tarkay works should increase in value, as Tarkay collectors begin to recognize the limited number of original works he made as opposed to the greater production which came later in Tarkay's career
Tarkay's wife is Bruria Tarkay. They have two sons, Adi and Itay Tarkay. On June 3, 2012, Tarkay died. Tarkay was 77.to

MEDIEVAL NIGHT DREAMS Funny Creatures Original Purple Painting by Stasy Vo
Located in Zofingen, AG
Abstract Middle Ages images are scattered across the canvas in the clouds of dreams.
By the word Middle Ages, we mean such different images. On the one hand, knights, castles, and beautiful ladies, and the other, we can say with a despicable intonation, meaning some savagery, remembering the incredible cruelty of those times. Sometimes, one falls into despair at this uneven evolution. On the one hand, someone is already inventing anthropomorphic robots for tomorrow, and on the other, many remain wild in their lust for burning witches at stake... I dream of a Renaissance!
Medieval Dreams participated in the curator exhibition "Winged Swing" in May 2022 in Moscow.
The artwork is on canvas on a stretcher 100x50x1.5 cm with painted sides. It's ready to hang. The work is signed on the front and will come with a Certificate of Authenticity by Stasy Vo...
