In the elegant setting of Vizcaya located at 21st and U St. Sacramento, you are given the opportunity to view a number of new works by Tarahteeff. Known for his potent, surreal narrative of the figure, John continues to explore a play of texture and mixed media. These are dreamlike paintings of figures and settings that stage a mysterious drama in the artist’s personal language.

A Room to Preview” will show new works that will be in a catalog when our gallery opens in the fall of 2007. In “A Room to Remember” we are also exhibiting selected paintings from his past, some that have not been seen before.

Enjoy hors d'oeuvres and champagne/wine catered by the staff at Vizcaya as you wander through each stirring painting. It is a time to intellectually and aesthetically consume the fine artwork of John Tarahteeff.
