Park West Gallery proudly unveils a new website featuring one of the most influential artists of the early 21st Century, Itzchak Tarkay.
Tarkay has achieved recognition as a leading representative of a new generation of figurative artists. The inspiration for his work lies with French Impressionism, and Post-Impressionism, particularly the color sophistication of Matisse and the drawing style of Toulouse-Lautrec, while summing up the characteristics of his model subject without relying on the precise copying of natural forms, or the patient assembling of exact detail.

Check out the new Tarkay website. It's great! Hopefully Park West will create the same for all the artists they carry and link them all to their home site.
ReplyDeleteThe new website looks amazing! Be sure to watch the video on Tarkay's bio page - I love to see an artist in his element; working in the studio amongst all of their works in progress.
ReplyDeleteWill there be a new Tarkay book coming out? The two in my collection I had signed when Tarkay was at a gallery event. Why doesn't Park West hold those great open house events where the public gets to meet the artists? Seems to be several years since I attended one.
ReplyDeleteTarkay's style has not changed but remains uniquely popular and highly collectable.
