Project ArtBeat in Tbilisi presented personal exhibition of Avto Meskhi. The exposition includes mixed media works: collages, paintings and drawings made during 1984-2015. Curated by Natia Bukia.
Avto Meskhi, due to his introvert personality and moreover his tragic life is a lesser-known painter in Georgia and abroad. Accordingly, Private Acquaintance, his solo exhibition held at the gallery exactly a year ago is a very important event for the Georgian art scene.
The artist was born in Tbilisi, 1946 and lived and worked in Tbilisi and Rustavi. When Project ArtBeat discovered Meskhi he was 70 years old, he already had lost his home, where he lived with his mother and was spending last years ...

»Das Leben ist nur ein Spiel«, auch das steht auf der Homepage des 1948 im sowjetischen Moldawien geborenen Künstlers Alim Rijinachvili, »der Tod ist nur ein Spiel«, und auch »Gesundheit und Krankheit sind nur ein Spiel«. Rijinachvili weiß zu diesem Zeitpunkt bereits, dass ihm nur noch wenige Tage bleiben, dass er den Diagnosen der Ärzte zufolge die Eröffnung seiner letzten Ausstellung, für ihn die wohl wichtigste überhaupt, nicht mehr selbst erleben wird. Hilft ihm der Gedanke, dass alles nur ein Spiel sei, in diesen Tagen? »Ja, natürlich.« Als Schüler, in der achten oder neunten Klasse, beginnt Rijinachvili, sich für Kunst zu interessieren, fertigt Kopien an von Bildern, die ihm gefallen. Nach der Schule studiert er in Tiflis an der Akademie der Künste, wo er 1973 seinen Abschluss macht. Die Frage, wer ihn künstlerisch beeinflusst hat, kann oder will er nicht beantworten: »Das ist schwer zu sagen, weil es so viele gute Künstler gibt.«

PERSONAL EXHIBITION: Maka Batiashvili's solo exhibition at Fabrika courtyard
Project ArtBeat is pleased to invite you to the opening of Maka Batiashvili's solo exhibition tomorrow, 7-9 PM at Fabrika courtyard, 8 E. Ninoshvili str.
The exhibition is on until April 30.
Visiting hours: 12-8 PM.
The project is supported by Fabrika and Tbilisi City Hall.
Project ArtBeat: Georgian Contemporary Art Gallery Founded By Natia Bukia, Natia Chkhartishvili & Salome Vakhania www.facebook.com/events/796490377165475
“The minimal touch of the tusche on paper lasts for only a few seconds and is inspired by calligraphy aesthetics. Simple lines on a white background represent a splatter of figures, they replace the words and create a face living in the repetition of mundane variations and the endless flow. A person who went out of the house is free from the past and the future. He acts in the present, where there is no current or trend“ - Maka Batiashvili.
Maka Batiashvili (Born in 1975, Georgia) lives and works in Tbilisi. 1992-97, the artist studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, Tbilisi.
Selected solo and group exhibitions:
2015 - Playground, TBC Gallery, Tbilisi, Georgia; Exhibition of Georgian Painters, Contemporary Art Center, Tel Aviv, Israel; 2013 - Arundel Contemporary, Arundel, UK; 2012 - Industrial Gallery, Ostrava, the Czech Republic; 2011 - Black and White, Tbilisi History Museum, Tbilisi, Georgia; 2008 - OFF EUROPA Festival, Leipzig, Germany; National Museum, Atlanta, USA. Project ArtBeat presented Batiashvili's works at Contemporary Istanbul Art Fair (2014-16, Istanbul, Turkey); Kyiv Art Week (2016, Kiev, Ukraine); START Art Fair, Saatchi Gallery, (2015, London, UK).

Maka Batiashvili's exuberant work depicts scenes from the everyday. Through the subject matter, Batiashvili poses questions around the existential issues of life and death. In her work the everyday life resembles a playground, where various scenes are being performed. Ostensibly unmediated figures and the intense color scheme in Batiashvili's work share stylistic tendencies with the early modernist painting traditions of Georgia and Europe. Batiashvili's practice is an interesting cross between the traditional and the contemporary painting.
Visiting hours: 12-8 PM.

KUNST: Karlo Katscharawa und Deutschland. Ausstellungseröffnung und Präsentation des Katalogs in Georgien
Ausstellung zum 20. Jubiläum des Goethe-Institut Georgien.
Vor 20 Jahren wurde das Goethe-Institut in Tbilissi gegründet. In demselben Jahr, 1994, starb ein knapp über dreißig Jahre alter Kunstkritiker und Künstler namens Karlo Katscharawa in einem Tifliser Krankenhaus an einer Gehirnblutung. Im Lebenswerk dieses zum Zeitpunkt seines Todes noch ganz jungen Mannes verkörpert sich die deutsch-georgische intellektuelle und menschliche Synthese, für die unser Haus steht, auf eine einzigartige und künstlerisch glänzende Weise.
Das Werk Karlo Katscharawas ist entscheidend beeinflusst von den Malern des deutschen Expressionismus und von den Künstlern der neoexpressionistischen deutschen Kunstrevolution der achtziger Jahre in Köln und Berlin. Es zitiert Joseph Beuys, Jörg Immendorf, August Macke, Ludwig Kirchner, Karl-Horst Hödicke. Es atmet den Geist der Märchen der Gebrüder Grimm und der deutschen Romantik. Ohne dass wir es in Deutschland wußten, gab es damals im tiefen Süden der Sowjetunion ein korrespondierendes Mitglied der neuen deutschen Kunst der achtziger Jahre, die wir in den Kölner und Stuttgarter Galerien oder im Berliner SO 36 bestaunten.
Zum 50. Geburtstag von Karlo Katscharawa und unserem 20. Jubiläum eröffnen wir, Irina, unsere gemeinsame Freundin Lika Katscharawa und unsere Partner von der Firma "Silk Road/Zinanadali" ein analoges Projekt mit den großen Leinwänden, auf denen Karlo seine Liebe zur deutschen Kunst und seine spezifisch georgische Weiterentwicklung der deutschen Kultur für die Zukunft - für eine gemeinsame Zukunft unserer Kulturen - dokumentiert und künstlerisch festgehalten hat. Auch diese Ausstellung ist Teil eines deutsch-georgischen Gemeinschaftsunternehmens, für das wir wieder mit "Silk Road/Zinandali" dankenswerterweise zusammenarbeiten dürfen und das ab 11. Oktober nicht nur in Tbilissi für die Öffentlichkeit zugänglich wird, sondern auch in Zinandali.

ART & EXHIBITION: Georgian graphic artist Ia Chkhaidze (agora-gallery.com)
The career of Georgian graphic artist Ia Chkhaidze began in fashion design. The influence of the world of fashion is apparent in her heightened sense of beauty, and in the duality of movement and stasis that underlies her work. Chkhaidze is a visual narrator, using ink to tell stories, not linearly, but rather multidimensionally. The overarching theme of her work is the exploration of emotion as the definer of human experience. Yet she tells the story of a world that is not overwhelmed by the mystery and confusion of raw, unfettered emotions, but rather finds balance in its very chaos. She uses line and contour to create symmetry between multiple, often surprising, elements. Her subjects interact as if invisible to one another – existing simultaneously in two distinct yet connected emotional realms.Ia Chkhaidze was born in Tbilisi, Georgia. She studied fashion design at Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State Univeristy and in 2005, co-founded the Bisoni fashion house. Her career in graphic design began in 2006 and has since been the primary focus of her work.
Reception: Thursday, January 13, 2011 6-8 PM

PAINTING: Shalva Kikodze: Seaside, Adjara, oil on cardboard, 15 X 27, 1919 (wikipedia.org)
Drawings and paintings by Shalva Kikodze >>>Shalva Kikodze (Georgian: შალვა ქიქოძე) (1894 – 1921) was a Georgian expressionist painter, graphic artist and theatre decorator. Together with Lado Gudiashvili and David Kakabadze, he is considered a key figure in Georgian art of the early 20th century.
He was born in a remote Georgian village Bakhvi, Guria, then part of the Russian Empire. From 1914 to 1918, he studied at Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. In 1916, he took part in an expedition to the Georgian village Nabakhtevi and made copies of the 15th-century murals from the local church. He stayed in his motherland for a short period of 1918-1920, and worked chiefly as a theater decorator for Jabadari Theater in Tbilisi. Afterwards he moved to Paris, where he, together with his fellow painters, Gudiashvili and Kakabadze, held an exhibition in 1921. He died in Freiburg, Germany, on November 7 1921

ART: Superstar in Love. New Drawings by Salome Machaidze
Yesterday I have seen my friend Nini Palavandishvili. We had a conversation about many things for example the political situation in this region, the mentality of Georgians, the art in Georgia and above all about the magnum project from foreign photographers in Georgia.
Result of all was the catalog from the magnum photographers about Georgia. We agree each other that this book is a great document about different aims in this official project. You can see there different point of views about Georgia. I think for the Georgian Government is this exhibition not really a success but for the western world is it a good quality ... Maybe this photos could be a "picturesque turn" for the daily life there ...
Late in the evening Nini told me more about Salome Machaidze. She has published in facebook her new drawings. At the time Salome is living in Berlin. Last year we invited her for an exhibition in Leipzig. But now you can see her new works here.

KUNST: Nachgereicht - Maia Sumbadze, "Untitled 1", 2003 auf der Prag Biennale (art-magazin.de)
Zwei Freunde waren auf der Prag Biennale. Lado Pochkhua und Nini Palavandishvili besuchten Prag für diese Ausstellung. Jetzt wurde im hiesigen ART-Magazin diese Biennale besprochen und kritisiert als Tatbestand. Konkurrenz, Dünkel sollen herrschen - lieblos die Darstellung. Nichtsdestotrotz habe ich mich beim Ansehen der Bildergallerie gefreut, dass auch Maia Sumbadze vertreten war. Für mich ist sie eine der interessantesten und talentiertesten jungen Künstler Georgiens! Congratulations, Maia!

ARTIST: The Georgian Artist Vakhtan Oniani (oniani.net)
Vakhtan Oniani (patronymic Stephane) was born on August 30, 1932 in the village Zhakhundeli (Svaneti) – Republic of Georgia. In 1951 he enrolled in Tbilisi State Academy of Fine Art, faculty of sculpture, which graduated in 1958.
Since his studentship, he participates in Republican, Union and Foreign exhibitions. He is Honored Art Worker of the Republic of Georgia, Holder of an Order of Dignity, Designer of International Exhibition Art. Member of the Council of Artists of Soviet Union and Georgia. Real Member of National and Technologic Academies.
He, as an author of many monuments, manufacturer of machine art and Georgian mythological epos and maker of illustrations, continues creative work to the present day.
Vakhtang Oniani is too interesting even in art. The sculptor and the painter… he is too original total nature. His graphical series is a product of almost unknown popular artists, who paints churches, palaces, simple huts. Oniani’s each drawings are a part of Svaneti life… The deep roots of old folk art are such natural in his works as in Niko Pirosmani’s creative work. The Art Academy couldn’t make leveling of his talent; he mastered the technique of sculpture but content remained independently, as it corresponded to his nature.”
Artist-art critic Kirile Zdanevich
Vakhtang Oniani appeared in the field of action for 50th ages and declared on his formed mastery, own style and ideology. Subject matter of him especially is distinguished in the flow of strong painting. Vakhtang speaks with nature for three languages: by a brush, cutting tool and a pan. What is the dignity of his mastering? It is fusion of novelty and the ancient popular decorative form, convinced, exact, simplicity of stingy colours merged in composition, indivisible connection with popular creative work, formed technique, symbolicalness. Its palette connects characters, nuances, problems in own profile, which was touched by anyone before him. All above certifies mastering and dimensions of him. “The country where such artists are born can’t be small” said once an Academician of the Academy of Science of USSR, former Vice-president Alexander Konstantinov at Vakhtang Oniani’s exhibition in Leningrad. It is difficult to find better estimation.
Writer and Public figure Akaki Gelovani
In order to estimate Oniani’s art, it is enough to look at any of his drawings. Even if a daughter’s portrait. You will never forget it. I have imagined how she was seen by the astonished artist and brought the astonishment to us – really there is such youth and such beauty in the world. It does take place not so easily; the daughter displays ancient task of a woman’s spirit with its whole simplicity, by which Leonardo Da Vinci Jokonda charmed humanity. Oniani is a profound, national artist. Its basic topic is high universal beauty but clearly limited from eastern pseudo-exotics and he is real modern. He is bought up on classics, though he doesn’t blindly adore to authorities. Vakhtang Oniani is only thirty years old but he already has made a lot of wide creative work. He is a sculptor, paints canvases and he is keen on graphics. Vakhtang Oniani is a representative of a generation of young soviet artists, who are different from each other and deserve to be acknowledged.

Artist-art critic Kirile Zdanevich
Vakhtang Oniani appeared in the field of action for 50th ages and declared on his formed mastery, own style and ideology. Subject matter of him especially is distinguished in the flow of strong painting. Vakhtang speaks with nature for three languages: by a brush, cutting tool and a pan. What is the dignity of his mastering? It is fusion of novelty and the ancient popular decorative form, convinced, exact, simplicity of stingy colours merged in composition, indivisible connection with popular creative work, formed technique, symbolicalness. Its palette connects characters, nuances, problems in own profile, which was touched by anyone before him. All above certifies mastering and dimensions of him. “The country where such artists are born can’t be small” said once an Academician of the Academy of Science of USSR, former Vice-president Alexander Konstantinov at Vakhtang Oniani’s exhibition in Leningrad. It is difficult to find better estimation.
Writer and Public figure Akaki Gelovani
In order to estimate Oniani’s art, it is enough to look at any of his drawings. Even if a daughter’s portrait. You will never forget it. I have imagined how she was seen by the astonished artist and brought the astonishment to us – really there is such youth and such beauty in the world.

BLOG: Nino Biniashvili über die Künstlerin Nino Tskvitaia (georgianfemaleartists.blogspot.com)
Über Nino Biniashvilisi ArtBlog (georgianfemaleartists.blogspot.com) konnte auch ich Nino Tskvitaia's Art Blog (ninotskvitaia.blogspot.com) entdecken. Bemerkenswert war für Nino der individuelle Ausdruck: ihre Zeichnungen und Photographien haben eine Spur von Sarkasmus.
Nino Biniashvili veröffentlichte daraufhin einige Notizen über ihr Leben und ihre künstlerische Entwicklung. Nino Tskvitaiawurde 1983 geboren. Sehr früh begann sie zu malen und zu zeichnen. Ihr erster Lehrer war Tata Bakradze. Durch ihre Empfehlung begann sie 2001 an der Staatlichen Universität Malerei zu studieren. Zur selben Zeit studierte sie Fremdsprachen und hatte einen Job. Nach dem Abschluss ging sie nach Bayern, studierte die Deutsche Sprache und ging zur Abendschule an die Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Nürnberg. Später kam sie wieder zurück nach Tbilisi, wo sie weiterhin als Künstlerin arbeitete.
