Recycled Colours is J. Tarabilda’s seventh solo exhibition, and the works are made using paint leftovers accumulated in the artist’s studio over the last few years, painting on canvas. However, the artist proposes not to call them paintings, adding that the only visible evidence of the artist’s presence is the application of paint with a brush.
J. Tarabilda is a graduate of the sculpture department of the Vilnius Academy of Arts, presenting his work both in Lithuania and abroad. The artist focuses not only on painting but also on photography, video works, and objects, creating a complex and intense field of work.
In 2017, J. Tarabilda’s work was awarded the Audience Prize at the Young Painter Prize competition, and in 2020, he was voted the best artist at the ArtVilnius’20 art fair. J. Tarabilda’s works have been acquired by MO Museum and private collectors from Lithuania, Latvia, Germany, Israel, the USA, Estonia, and the UK. The gallery representing the artist, Meno niša, has successfully presented his work at contemporary art fairs such as viennacontemporary in Austria, Positions Berlin in Germany, and ArtVilnius in Lithuania.
J. Tarabilda’s exhibition Recycled Colours will be on view at Riga’s Look gallery (Ģertrūdes iela 62A) from March 30 to April 22. The opening of the exhibition will take place on March 30, at 6 pm, during the traditional gallery evening Riga Last Thursdays in the Latvian capital.
Vilnius city gallery Meno niša is supported by Vilnius City Municipality.
