New works by our painter, Dr Art Dina Jakšić Pavasović, have arrived at Jakšić Gallery in Split, bringing a fresh perspective and renewed energy to the gallery space. The selection features paintings in a variety of sizes, formats and colour palettes, ranging from smaller compositions to large-scale works that command attention through their expressive qualities and distinctive character.
Dina Jakšić Pavasović is an academically trained painter who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome (Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma) and earned her doctorate from the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb. Her artistic practice explores colour, form, texture and the relationships between them. Through contemporary painting, she has developed a distinctive visual language characterised by bold colour contrasts, free-flowing abstract forms and richly textured surfaces.
The new paintings at Jakšić Gallery offer a diverse range of compositions and a rich interplay of colours. Some works are dominated by light, almost ethereal shades of blue, white and grey, while others feature intense yellows, reds and dark tones. Layers of paint, visible brushstrokes and pronounced textures create a sense of movement and depth that changes with the light and the viewer’s perspective. This diversity allows each painting to find its place within a wide range of spaces and interiors.
Particular attention is drawn to the large-scale paintings, which are especially well suited to spacious, contemporary interiors. Their generous dimensions allow them to become a central visual feature, whether in a modern living room, a prestigious office, a hotel or another carefully designed architectural setting. Through their colours, compositions and expressive surfaces, abstract paintings can enhance the character of an interior, introduce a sense of dynamism or create a striking contrast with minimalist surroundings.
Among the new works is a particularly intriguing diptych consisting of two separate paintings, which can be displayed together or individually. Its distinctive feature is the possibility of rearranging the two elements, creating different compositions and new visual relationships. This approach invites the owner to take an active role in shaping the final presentation of the artwork, adapting it to the space and their own personal interpretation. While each painting stands as an independent work, bringing them together creates an entirely new visual composition.
Jakšić Gallery in Split is a space dedicated to presenting artworks created by members of our family, bringing together contemporary painting, sculpture and design with our family’s long-standing tradition of artistic creation. The gallery offers visitors an opportunity to explore different forms of artistic expression, materials and individual creative approaches, while discovering original works of art for their homes or professional spaces.
We invite you to visit our gallery in Split and discover the new paintings by Dina Jakšić Pavasović. Photographs can convey their colours and compositions, but only experiencing the original artworks in person reveals the full richness of their textures, the depth of their layered colours and the unique character of each piece. Explore our selection of contemporary paintings and find a work of art that will bring personality and a distinctive artistic presence to your space.
