About artist: Tager Jan (1954 - 2005)

The Dutch aquarellist Jan Tager has travelled all over the world in search of a perfect landscape. We had possibility to redeem and present to your attention his picturesque series «Greek voyage». Colourful watercolors by Jan Tager bewitch us by the reliability and figurativeness. «That's... I was on this small street also... » - it would be desirable to tell, looking at his landscape of the Greek cities and villages.

Watercolor is a very whimsical technics. Especially in that case when the artist tries to achieve not only real impression of appearance, but impression of mood of the seen. It is the most difficult kind of painting, and Jan Tager copes excellent with this problem - we can see it in his watercolors.

The paintings by Jan Tager in the watercolor technic amaze with a subtlety and lyricism. His painting differs riches of tone, effect of ease and shrillness.

Jan Tager considered that art, in particular painting, is an author's vision and reality refraction and if the artist does not add something "his", it is not the art, but masterful copying of the seen only. On the other hand, if the artist can't transfer what he see on a canvas or a paper, he isn't an artist... But the real skill reached by the artist consists in alloy of the reality and absoluteness.

So the painting of Jan Tager is the masterly balancing on the most thin side separating the reality from illusion, the ordinary from a fairy tale, the validity from magic. As a result the artist creates a real-illusory world, the absolutely tremendous image, the absolutely recognised by the spectator.

His painting in the watercolor technic is the real painting, instead of drawing. It is the most thin art of perfection...
