About the Artist: Itzchak Tarkay (1935-2012)
Itzchak Tarkay, born in 1935, survived the Mathausen concentration camp at age nine. In 1949, he immigrated to Israel and received a scholarship to the Bezalel Art Academy in 1951. Tarkay became a leading figurative artist, drawing inspiration from French Impressionism.
Artistic Technique
Tarkay's distinctive style uses silk-screen painting to create rich textures and transparencies. He layered multiple colors to achieve his signature tapestry of form and color, without relying on precise natural form replication.
Legacy
Considered one of the most influential artists of the early 21st century, Tarkay's deep, thoughtful depictions of figures have inspired artists worldwide. His work has been the subject of numerous books and critical acclaim.
