Artworks
Tareque is mainly a printmaker. However, he did numerous work in the several mediums including oil, water, and acrylic, but he mostly on the mix-media. Initially nature, structure and portrait became the subject of his paintings. His portraits are considered semi-realistic and often surreal. Most of his paintings have vibrant colours, and the background of the running background is dominant. Initially, multivariate fragility noted in his paintings that often reminds the artworks of the Fauvist artists. Paul Klee's painting are often remembered when analyzing the space and intention of Tareque's painting "Antarer Anusandhan" and "Naree Banam Naree". Tareque has often used the Arabic alphabet and the use of words in the art of painting. Tareque has tried to create own art form mainly by synthesizing different doctrines of paintings rather than a specific one. There is a logical appreciation about the life of artist Tareque in the opening words.
ঈশ্বর নিরাকার নিস্ক্রিয় পরম শূন্যতা, ধর্ম মানব সমাজের জন্য একটি ঐতিহাসিক ঘটনা, যা ক্রমেই ইতিহাস হয়ে যাচ্ছে। যাদের ইতিহাস বোধের ঘাটতি আছে তারা হয় ধার্মিক, হয়তো ধর্ম বিরোধী, নয়তো ধর্ম বিদ্বেষী।
