[link to Press Release]

Levan Mindiashvili has been making work about urban landscapes that inform our sense of identity and the intimate connections we make with the spaces we inhabit since 2012. In 2003 he graduated from Tbilisi State Academy of Arts (Republic of Georgia) and the same year started intensively exhibiting his works in Europe. From 2008 – 2012 he lived and worked in Buenos Aires, Argentina where he received his MFA from the National University of Art of Buenos Aires

Mindiashvili’s new series, entitled Borderlines, is a study of his reflections on cities as both public and private meeting points. Originally conceived in Buenos Aires, this recent body of work explores the artist’s personal and collective experiences with the architecture and public structures of New York, where he is currently based. It is through his renderings of reflections amongst monumental objects, combined with a uniquely subjective reinterpretation of urban stimulation/inundation, that he reveals his complex and evolving personal relationship with the city.

Borderlines is an investigation into the sediment of his global experience, the invisible realities that have been burned into his subconscious country by country, city by city, block by block. “Generally, architecture most clearly defines and reveals the changes in our contemporary world, in our approaches and common visions,” says Mindiashvili.

His new work depicts distorted, almost abstract fragments of old architecture reflected on new, transparent surfaces or seen through them. “I perceive them as maps of consciousness of the contemporary world with its migrations, gentrification, identity and social issues,” the artist explains, “I want to trigger a dialogue about recent history.” The idea that a personal history is valuable and that the reflected perception of each individual dictates the overall substance and spirit of the larger urban landscape is deeply rooted in his intentions.

Book description: Recent works by Levan Mindiashvili. 

Introduction text by Dr. Wolfgang Till Busse - “Urban Identities” is a personal, subjective investigation of urban space, architecture and city structure based on living experiences in New York, Buenos Aires and Tbilisi. It is a private diary, in which “public space” becomes a playground for revelations of personal approaches, intimacies and memories. Overlapping silhouettes are creating a time-space continuum for this extended journey into constructions of a very complex, almost puzzle-like, structure named Identity." (Levan Mindiashvili)

Straßen verbinden Kulturen

Straßen verbinden. Straßen verbinden Länder. Und „Straßen verbinden Kulturen“ miteinander.
Was wäre, wenn eine Straße nur ihren Ausgangsort hätte, also nur einen Punkt? Das Ende der Straße bliebe dann ungewiss, nicht erreichbar. Würde die Straße dann nicht zu einem Ort von Abenteuern? Alles könnte geschehen, alles könnte passieren!
Die Straße, die sich uns mit dieser Ausstellung öffnet, führt zu Künstlern aus zahlreichen, höchst unterschiedlichen Ländern der Erde. Sie will deutlich machen, welch schöpferische Kraft diesen inne wohnt. Und sie ist ein Symbol für das, was sie fühlen, was sie ängstigt - aber auch ein Symbol für Freude über immer wieder neues künstlerisches Schaffen.
Die beteiligten Künstler/innen haben mit den in der Ausstellung präsentierten Werken - ganz individuell - eine Straße betreten, die nicht nur ihr künstlerisches Schaffen aufzeigt. Sie selbst und ihre Werke sind auf dieser realen Straße angekommen, die für sie zu einem breiten Weg geworden ist, auch um sich über alle Ländergrenzen hinweg aufeinander zu zu bewegen - ein Weg der Kontakte, des Dialogs, um gegenseitiges Vertrauen aufzubauen und das Miteinander zu pflegen.
Ein Teilstück dieser Straße wurde 2005 mit der Gründung des Internationalen Künstlervereins e.V. gebaut. Weitere Teilstücke kamen im Laufe der folgenden Jahre hinzu. Und die Ausstellung, die jetzt eröffnet wird, setzt neue Impulse im Zueinander und Miteinander dieser Kunstschaffenden.
Freuen Sie sich also auf eine interessante Ausstellung!
