The Rooster Gallery will take part at art fair ART BRUSSELS 2024. Our gallery’s exposition specially conceived for Art Brussels by Lithuanian artists Tomas Dauksa and Andrius Zakarauskas unveils a fabulous installation featuring large scale paintings and sculptural objects.
In his paintings A.Zakarauskas explores themes of human relationships. Yet he looks at the subject matter from painter’s perspective and often transforms the scenes into metaphors for painting and image making in general. The narrative is often driven by the concept of painting as an act of applying paint to the surface of canvas. This act of painting becomes a universal key to reveal the stories behind elaborate and multi-contextual scenes. The main element is a stroke that takes on new forms in its constantly changing relationship with space. T. Dauksa showcases bizarre otherworldly fountains. The artist employs them as peculiar mechanisms that circulate liquefied themes. This time, the objects contain flowing and murmuring love elixir, which takes us back to the equally banal and paradoxical fantasy of eternal love. It accommodates the maddening irrational infatuation, an obsessive craving for the other, and the tiresome being together alike.
Art Brussels is one of the most renowned contemporary art fairs in Europe and a must-see in the international art calendar. Art Brussels presents a strong and international line up and a unique mix of established artists and emerging talent, where 177 leading galleries from 30 different countries present their artists and more than 26.000 visitors gather at the iconic Brussels Expo.
