Jan Tarasin

Jan Tarasin (born 1926 in Kalisz, died 2009 in Warsaw) was a painter whose works are like a story, told without a single word. The key to understanding it is through sensory reception. The recipient acquires this ability during each contact with nature, which was one of the artist's most important sources of painting inspiration.

Tarasin described the world in a language of ever-changing signs and symbols to capture its variability and irregularity. The irregularity of the contour and the sometimes blurring geometry of the object construct its uneven rhythm, resulting from the depth of its multilayeredness. The reality presented by Tarasin reveals the possibility of multiple interpretations and varied perception.
