About the Item

Weather forecast 2004, canvas, oil, 50x70 cm Ivars Poikans 1952. Riga Ivars Poikāns works in painting, graphics, book illustration, cinema art. Born on October 24, 1952, in Riga 1964-1972 - graduated from J. Rozentāls Riga Art High School 1975-1976 - studied at the Painting Department of the Art Academy of Latvia. Participates in exhibitions since 1977. From 1985 - member of the Union of Artists. He made illustrations for the magazines "Avots", "School and family", "Zvaigzne", "Liesma", and the newspaper "Literatura und art". In 1987, he won the main prize and audience sympathy award at the inter-republic competition exhibition "Comic in contemporary art". In 2001, he was awarded for a successful creative achievements in painting at the "Autumn" exhibition. An artist with a persistent interest in social processes (which is a rare phenomenon in the Latvian art scene), who moves the banalities of life to the level of life revelations with an astral schizophrenic orientation. The description of "domestic banter" performed by the author is almost always sufficiently expressive and also dominates the evaluations of art critics. Expressive painting remains unappreciated; even the drawings of color etchings have a painterly quality. In painting, at the beginning he consciously tried to synthesize the painting techniques of J. Pauluks and A. Bauškenieks, until he developed his own artistic handwriting, which is dominated by neo-expressionist stylistics based on nihilistic aesthetics. In the graphics, the disharmonious in form and the uncomfortable in a person are revealed in a sarcastic attitude towards any phenomenon of reality. Works mainly in the lithography technique and etching technique with aquatint. /L.Reichmane/ The most important exhibitions: in Riga (1978, 1979, together with I. Lībieti, V.
