RARES KEREKES IS A ROMANIAN ARTIST BORN IN 1982 IN HISTORICAL CITY SIGHISOARA, TRANSYLVANIA, ROMANIA. HIS INSPIRATION IS DRAWN FROM ARTISTS AS CEZANNE AND PICASSO, WHILE IN YEARS OF WORK, HE CREATED HIS OWN UNIQUE STYLE, BETWEEN MYSTIC AND MEDIEVAL. MODERN, FIGURATIVE, ABSTRACT AND CUBIST, HE ALWAYS WISHES THAT PEOPLE WHO LOOK AT HIS PAINTINGS TO FEEL RELAXED AND TRANSPORTED IN HIS WORLD OF COLORS AND BEAUTY. HIS PAINTINGS EMBRACE COLORS THAT REFLECT THE EXUBERANCE OF LIFE WITH STRONG BRUSHES WITH OPEN SPACES THAT INVOKE A SENSE OF OPTIMISM AND LIBERTY.  HIS ARTISTIC ACTIVITY INCLUDES SOLO AND GROUP EXHIBITIONS IN ROMANIA AND AS WELL INTERNATIONAL (TURKEY, JORDAN, BULGARIA). IN 2024 RARES WAS SELECTED FROM 350 ARTISTS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CANADIAN ANNUAL JURIED EXHIBITION “IMPACT 2024” – NELSON PARK CREATIVE CENTRE TORONTO (JULY 9 TO AUGUST 1 2024)
