Since 2007 Ilgvars Zalans had a 33-country world tour with his action-painting performances.In the past years he has actively taken the opportunities offered by artist residences, thereby traveling almost half of the world. Lately, his art is better known in Indonesia, Malaysia, China, and Japan than in Latvia, because he has lived and worked while travelling abroad extensively. In his art Zalans focuses on images and motifs that are fundamental, archetypal, and universal in human experience, as opposed to those that are socially determined.The exhibitions of the artist regularly take place in Latvia and abroad. In 2015 his works were showcased at the Scope Basel and Scope Miami Beach art shows during the ArtBasel weeks and at Art Copenhagen, the Scandinavia's International Art Fair for Contemporary & Modern Art.
